Both individual and group psychotherapy opened up an entirely new way of understanding myself, relationships and people, inviting me into a deeper exploration of the inner world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Soon afterwards, Buddhism and meditation opened new perspectives on life, people and myself. My mindfulness training in the United Kingdom, grounded in both Western psychology and Eastern Buddhist traditions, expanded my understanding far beyond what I had previously believed was possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">After receiving my licence to practise psychotherapy under supervision, I spent several years facilitating mindfulness programmes. During that time, I increasingly felt that something was calling me further. I longed for a deeper connection with aliveness \u2013 through voice, movement, the body, sexuality, and everything that helps us feel more fully alive and connected to ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">As I searched for a way to bring all of these aspects into my work, I found the VITA\u2122 training in Sex, Love and Relationship Coaching. The VITA\u2122 approach enriched my work by inviting the exploration of pleasure, desire, creativity and those parts of ourselves that often remain in the background, yet carry a profound life force.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Today, all of these experiences shape the way I accompany people \u2013 with curiosity, presence, respect for each person's unique rhythm, and trust that the most meaningful things often unfold gradually.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section id=\"section-12-30\" class=\"ct-section oxyb-section oxyb-section-image oxyb-section-image-reverse\" ><div class=\"ct-section-inner-wrap\"><div id=\"div_block-13-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-bg\" ><div id=\"div_block-65-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-center\" ><div id=\"div_block-14-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-text-wrap\" ><h2 id=\"_rich_text-67-30\" class=\"oxy-rich-text ep-uppercase oxyb-section-image-title\" ><p>My foundations<\/p><\/h2><div id=\"_rich_text-17-30\" class=\"oxy-rich-text oxyb-section-image-text oxyb-maxwidth\" ><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; mso-ansi-language: SL;\">Studying psychotherapy showed me how deeply we are all shaped by the wounds we carry, and that opening those wounds safely requires deep respect, ethics, integrity, ongoing learning and professional support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; mso-ansi-language: SL;\">Buddhism, meditation and mindfulness helped me realise just how unpredictable, mysterious and vast life truly is \u2013 both within us and around us. They reminded me that not all answers can be found through understanding alone. Some things reveal themselves only when we allow them enough space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; mso-ansi-language: SL;\">The VITA\u2122 approach deepened my understanding of how important it is not to lose sight of pleasure, creativity, desire and joy, even in the face of the pain that is an inevitable part of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; mso-ansi-language: SL;\">At the heart of my work is the belief that people do not need to be fixed. I believe that each of us carries far more within than we are aware of at any given moment. It is my intention to create a space where people can meet themselves in a way that honours their own pace, their lived experience, and their unique path. I hope to share that space with anyone who feels called to walk part of their journey alongside me.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><div id=\"div_block-19-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-img-wrap\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  id=\"image-20-30\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/evapozar.com\/svetovanja\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mg_3572-scaled.jpg\" class=\"ct-image\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section id=\"section-45-30\" class=\"ct-section oxyb-section oxyb-section-image-fullwidth\" ><div class=\"ct-section-inner-wrap\"><div id=\"div_block-46-30\" class=\"ct-div-block\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  id=\"image-47-30\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/evapozar.com\/svetovanja\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/tia_eva_podolgovata.jpg\" class=\"ct-image ep-fullwidth-img\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/section><section id=\"section-52-30\" class=\"ct-section oxyb-section oxyb-section-image\" ><div class=\"ct-section-inner-wrap\"><div id=\"div_block-53-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-bg\" ><div id=\"div_block-61-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-center\" ><div id=\"div_block-54-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-text-wrap\" ><div id=\"_rich_text-57-30\" class=\"oxy-rich-text oxyb-section-image-text oxyb-maxwidth\" ><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; mso-ansi-language: SL;\">I love spending time in nature with my dog, Tia, and every now and then you'll find me taking a spontaneous dip in a river or a lake. I love dancing \u2013 whether it's by myself in my living room or with others. Reading, listening to and writing poetry is food for my soul.\nI also rarely go anywhere without my Kindle (I resisted it for a long time, but these days it comes with me almost everywhere), always filled with an endless selection of novels.\nI've travelled through a large part of our beautiful world, and I have no doubt that the call to discover new cultures, places and, ultimately, myself will soon invite me on another journey.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><div id=\"div_block-59-30\" class=\"ct-div-block oxyb-section-image-img-wrap\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  id=\"image-60-30\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/evapozar.com\/svetovanja\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/vracanje-k-sebi-o_meni-eva-scaled.jpg\" class=\"ct-image\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section id=\"section-31-30\" class=\"ct-section oxyb-section\" ><div class=\"ct-section-inner-wrap\"><div id=\"div_block-32-30\" class=\"ct-div-block ep-red\" ><h2 id=\"_rich_text-70-30\" class=\"oxy-rich-text ep-uppercase oxyb-maxwidth\" ><p>My commitement<\/p><\/h2><div id=\"_rich_text-34-30\" class=\"oxy-rich-text oxyb-maxwidth-big\" ><p>My life intention is to support the development of a more inclusive and accepting society.
