About Borbala
Counsellor Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is a counsellor registered with the BACP and NCPS with five years' experience. She works with adults aged 18 and over on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and LGBT issues, and helps people coping with life changes and parenting pressures.
She uses an integrative approach that draws on several established therapies. That means she may work from psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural ideas to suit what someone brings to sessions. She also lists specific approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her practice.
Bee offers conversational sessions where clients can talk through identity, self-esteem and relationship concerns. She sometimes uses creative methods such as dreamwork, chair work, therapeutic journaling and images and symbols. These are optional tools to help people clarify feelings and patterns.
A central focus of her counselling is identity and personality in relationships. She helps people who struggle with guilt, low self-esteem, anger or confusion about who they are. Work in sessions aims to identify personal strengths and practical ways to manage difficult feelings.
Sessions are for adults only. She speaks English and Hungarian and practises in the United Kingdom. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and practical details through the site process.
How her approaches work for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on actions that match personal values and can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help with relationship difficulties, trust and attachment concerns by exploring emotional responses and interaction styles.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different options and decide together which methods fit the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That decision is revisited as work continues to make sure the approach remains helpful.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm available session types before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, for example by avoiding travel and allowing a shorter check-in at the start or end of a working day. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, since some formats require less bandwidth or allow phone-based conversations. Registered or accredited professionals will talk through practical arrangements when you book a first session.
