As you can see the top eyelet is not centred properly. I’ve tried to push on it with my hands and lightly tapping it with a mallet to no avail. Can u centre it my self or do I need a bike shop to fix it, Thanks.

Drill a hole in a piece of wood, set it short side down into said hole, tap it with a mallet. That’s all your LBS is going to do.
A bushing tool is less than $20 brand new and you’ll get it dead center every time without risking damage by mallet. It also allows you to freely pull and replace bushings and hardware on any shock.
I bought two for myself while working for a shop. One for my bench, another for home.
You can also make one at home with a threaded rod and some hardware from any hardware store.
