About Borbala

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is a counsellor who draws on several therapeutic approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She works with adults and focuses on identity, self-esteem and relationship concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Hungarian and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Bee uses a flexible, integrative method that adapts to each person’s needs. That means she can draw on cognitive behavioural ideas to challenge unhelpful thinking and on emotion-focused work to look at how feelings shape relationships.

Background and approach

She also pays attention to attachment patterns and how they affect trust and closeness. Her style is warm and practical. She may offer journalling, chair work, dreamwork or the use of images and symbols as optional tools to help people understand themselves.

These techniques are optional and chosen together with the person in therapy. Bee has five years of clinical experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages people to notice strengths while learning new ways to cope.

Issues she commonly addresses include grief, parenting pressures, career change, codependency and coping with life changes. In sessions she helps people work through family problems, communication difficulties, attachment issues and the effects of abuse. Her approach aims to create a steady, reflective space where people can try out new thinking and behaviour and slowly rebuild a clearer sense of identity.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of trust and closeness and is helpful for relationship and identity concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods and agree a plan together based on goals and preferences. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the approach can be adjusted as needed and practical tools can be introduced when they feel helpful.

Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people connect face to face for deeper emotional work, while phone calls can fit a short break during the day or work better with lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, journalling-style reflection or ongoing support between longer sessions, giving flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life.
