Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab, BACP, NCPS

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is an integrative therapist and clinical supervisor who works with adults aged 18 and over. She creates a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where people can bring up experiences they may never have voiced before. Her practice prioritizes an empathic and accepting atmosphere in which each person is invited to reflect, question, and express their unique sense of self, and she builds a therapeutic relationship aimed at helping clients navigate life-s challenges with greater clarity and resilience.

Working from an integrative perspective, she draws on Psychodynamic, Humanistic, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to tailor support to each individual-s needs. She also offers a selection of creative tools such as dreamwork, chair work, therapeutic journaling, and the use of images and symbols - optional methods that can deepen insight and promote healing when they feel helpful.

Her specialist interest lies in exploring identity and personality within the context of relationships. When someone struggles to express or accept their identity, it can lead to feelings like guilt, low self-esteem, or anger. She supports people in uncovering strengths, developing practical skills, and learning ways to face life-s challenges. Borbala provides an open and supportive space to process emotional material and to explore how past and present experiences shape the person someone is and hopes to become. She holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy credential, and NCPS, a professional counselling credential. She offers therapy in English and Hungarian and practices in the United Kingdom.

Approaches for Online Support and Healing

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them. It uses simple mindfulness and values-based actions so clients can make meaningful changes in daily life and address issues like anxiety, stress, and difficulty coping with change.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape patterns of relating and emotional responses. It explores connection, trust, and attachment needs to help with relationship difficulties, attachment issues, and the emotional impact of past relational wounds.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Borbala will collaborate with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adapting the plan as progress unfolds and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, compassionate care across different communication styles, supporting continued access to therapy even when in-person meetings are not an option.
