About Rita

Rita Hercska is a counsellor who meets people where they are and helps them make practical changes. She works in English and Hungarian and brings six years of experience to sessions. Rita holds HCPC registration, which is shown as HCPC in her credentials.

She speaks plainly and aims to make conversations feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Rita focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and relationship concerns. She also helps with family and parenting strains, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Practical worries such as sleep, eating, career choices and anger are included alongside longer‑standing patterns like attachment or abandonment concerns. Her style is client-centred and collaborative. She listens for what matters most to each person and adapts tools from cognitive behavioural work, mindfulness, psychodynamic ideas and internal family systems.

Sessions aim to identify small, achievable steps and clearer ways to move forward rather than quick fixes. Rita often supports people feeling stuck at work or in relationships, and those caring for others who face compassion fatigue. She is also experienced in matters linked to autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues and family of origin problems.

People can expect a warm, interactive tone and a plan tailored to their situation. She does not provide legal or court documentation, diagnostic assessments, or treatment reports. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, fill a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to fit with Rita’s availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rita commonly uses client‑centred counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy in her online work. Client‑centred counselling focuses on listening, building trust and helping people find their own answers, which is useful for stress, self‑esteem and relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and helps people try small experiments to change unhelpful cycles, which can ease anxiety and mood problems.

She often also brings mindfulness practices into sessions to help with grounding and managing overwhelming feelings. These are short exercises you can practise between meetings to reduce reactivity and improve sleep or concentration. Deciding which mix of approaches to use is part of the work together; she will talk through options and agree what fits your needs and goals in a collaborative way.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video calls are good for a fuller face‑to‑face style, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can suit quick check‑ins or people who prefer written communication. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep continuity of support when in‑person sessions are not possible.
