About Eve

Eve GunderKline is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people work through painful life events and relationship struggles. She focuses on clear, steady support for issues like depression, anxiety, trauma, and the stress that comes with change. Her style is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make therapy feel manageable for someone juggling a busy life.

Her approach begins with listening. She helps clients name what is happening and figure out which patterns are keeping them stuck.

Background and approach

Conversations often look at attachment and family of origin issues, and how those early dynamics show up now. Eve also assists people recovering from sexual assault and working through self-harm urges in practical, step-by-step ways. Relationship concerns are a common focus.

She helps people handle jealousy, control issues, codependency, and the complications of non-monogamous relationships. She also supports those dealing with parenting stress, intimacy-related worries, and compassion fatigue from demanding roles. Eve uses a mix of client-centered work and trauma-focused methods to match the needs of each person.

EMDR is one of the approaches she draws on when trauma memories are active. She also brings psychodynamic ideas to help uncover repeating life themes. Sessions aim to build useful coping skills while also making space for deeper change.

Eve collaborates with clients to set modest goals and adjusts the pace as needed. Her practice is based in Illinois and sessions are offered in English.

Online support

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on acceptance and listening. The therapist follows the client's lead, offers reflective feedback, and helps people discover what they need to change. This approach is useful for building confidence and making sense of current problems.

EMDR, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is used when past events continue to cause distress. In practice it involves guided sessions that help reduce the intensity of troubling memories and the reactions they trigger. This can be helpful for people coping with post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eve will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and life situation. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on how a client responds so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions offer flexibility for different needs. Video calls let people work face to face from home or another convenient place. Phone sessions can be shorter and easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for frequent check-ins, homework support, or shorter updates between sessions.
