About Borbala
Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with adults aged 18 and over on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and identity. Bee also supports people facing relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Her practice draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches. She uses straightforward conversation to help people name difficult emotions and see how those feelings shape their relationships and choices. Sessions often involve exploring attachment patterns and the stories that shape self-image.
Bee mixes talking therapy with optional practical tools. These can include therapeutic journaling, chair work, dreamwork and working with images and symbols to clarify feelings. She offers these techniques when they fit the individual’s needs and preference.
In sessions she helps people look at patterns such as codependency, commitment worries, communication difficulties and feelings of emptiness or abandonment. She also addresses concerns linked to ageing, caregiving stress, autism and personality-related difficulties where they arise.
Sessions are conducted in English and Hungarian. Fees vary with location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and arrange a first appointment.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with hard-to-identify emotions and the interaction patterns that keep those feelings stuck. It is often used when attachment and relationship patterns are a focus. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then choosing values-based actions that matter to the person.Bee approaches therapy collaboratively. She will talk through different options and help decide which approach, or combination of approaches, fits the client’s goals and preferences. The therapeutic plan can change as the work progresses and as new needs emerge.
