About Hajnal

Hajnal Littler is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger and depression. Hajnal also helps clients dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges such as ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Her practice uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of the core approaches. She combines this with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques. Sessions aim to name difficult feelings and look at how they shape everyday reactions.

Hajnal takes a straightforward, talk-based approach. She encourages people to describe what is happening in their lives and how that feels. Together she and the client explore patterns that keep problems repeating and try small, practical changes to disrupt those patterns.

She is comfortable discussing sensitive topics such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, BDSM and kink culture, chronic illness, caregiver stress and codependency. Hajnal also supports people navigating career strain, blended family pressures and the emotional effects of cancer or ageing.

Sessions are offered in English and Hungarian. International clients can be seen. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches transfer to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on naming and working with hard-to-reach emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It is often used when people want to understand why certain feelings trigger repeated reactions or relational patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that align with personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current emotional responses and closeness with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hajnal will work with the client to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may draw from EFT, ACT, attachment ideas, client-centred listening or CBT techniques depending on what helps most.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find shorter check-ins easier to schedule, and telephone sessions can work when video is not possible. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their methods to online meetings so the work focuses on emotions, patterns and practical steps rather than logistics.
