Life changes, conflicts, or personal challenges can feel overwhelming. I offer a supportive space to explore your experiences, strengthen self-awareness, and develop a more authentic life. My approach is integrative, based on depth psychology, self-compassion, and emotional intelligence.

Love, sexuality, and relationships abroad can be complex. I support individuals and couples — especially expats and those in intercultural partnerships — to strengthen connection, build self-awareness, and create fulfilling bonds.

Couples therapy (1 access per couple)

In couples counselling, we take a step back and look at your negative cycles together, with the goal of getting emotionally close again through deeper understanding.

  • I recently had the opportunity to work with Eva-Maria, and I can’t express how beneficial it has been. From our very first session, I felt welcomed and understood. She creates a warm and inviting environment where I felt at ease sharing my thoughts and feelings, which is tough for me. One of the standout qualities is her how non-judgmental she it. It was refreshing to have someone listen without any criticism, she allowed me to open up fully and share how i feel. Her genuine care and empathy made a significant difference in my experience, helping me navigate through some challenging emotions. I truly appreciate her guidance and support. It’s comforting to know I have someone to turn to who is dedicated to helping me grow. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and understanding counsellor!

  • I have understand more about the how and why my inner processes and learned specific tools and techniques to help me manage my challenges. I appreciated the support and understanding and feel optimistic about the future.

  • The counselling had a big impact on my life and helped me to understand myself and my actions a lot better. I appreciated the relevant questions that gave me input the re-frame my patterns and the feedback and perspectives I have received. Overall I have managed to make effective changes to my life that will have a long-term impact and couldn't be happier to have chosen Eva-Maria Merboth. I highly recommend her. Thank you again for everything!

  • Over the last 2 years working with Eva, I've been able to make great improvements on having a more positive self image, managing my emotions effectively, and better navigating interpersonal relationships. She's great at quickly understanding my situations and helping me dive into the underlying issues. Through her guidance, I've gained invaluable insights and practical tools that empower me to navigate challenging situations independently. I'm proud of what I achieved and grateful for her invaluable support throughout my journey. I can recommend her as a trusted professional :)

  • I was extremely happy with how validated and heard I felt during the sessions and i am postive this has helped me tremendously, i am not more able to listen my needs and work with my environment in a way that helps me instead of stressing me. I am proud to say that anxiety doesn't cripple my body as it used to be almost a rare thing now. I am genuinely happy with M.Sc. Eva-Maria Merboth and her work ethics.

  • Eva is great! She continuously helps me address any topic I bring into the conversation. She's knowledgable, patient and caring. Thanks Eva!

  • Counselling with Eva was helpful. I was able to understand my problem in a better way, and I was able to resolve it with my own solution in the end. I recommend taking these sessions. It may tike time but in the end it is fruitful.

  • In my counselling sessions with Eva-Maria, I always feel safe to say what I need and, without judgement, get guidance on how to navigate through situations in life that come my way. Eva-Maria is very understanding and grounded, supportive when needed and direct when also needed and I really appreciate this. I feel like she understands me really well and makes the effort to continuously dig deeper. Most of all, she has patience and an open-mind. I can only recommend these sessions with Eva-Maria. Thank you!
