About Cila

Counsellor Cila Hintz is a member of NCPS and has eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people under stress, panic and anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and a range of related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Hungarian.

She uses several approaches to help people make changes they want. In sessions she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred work, among other methods. She talks through what is happening now and what practical steps might help day to day.

Cila pays attention to relationships and attachment issues, and to problems around intimacy, body image and sexual expression, including BDSM and kink. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, codependency, drug and alcohol problems, eating and sleep problems, and anger.

Her work covers emotional responses to life changes, such as separation and bereavement, and longer-term mood issues like depression and bipolar. Sessions include discussion of coping strategies, habits and behaviour patterns, and ways to manage strong feelings.

Practical matters such as session cost and scheduling are handled through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book an initial session. Cila does not take international clients outside the United Kingdom.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) asks people to clarify what matters most to them and to take small, practical steps that align with those values. It can help with anxiety, stress and difficulties where avoidance keeps problems going.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers structured ways to test unhelpful thoughts and to try different behaviours, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and low mood.

Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and building a respectful working relationship. The counsellor provides a steady, non-directive presence while the person sets the pace and topics for sessions. This can help when people want to make sense of their feelings or rebuild confidence.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss needs, goals and preferences and agree a way forward together. That shared planning may draw on one or more methods and can change over time as work progresses.

The original profile does not list specific online or face-to-face formats. Please confirm current session formats before booking. Generally, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by avoiding travel, offering shorter check-ins or letting people join from work during a lunch break. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use these practical options to help sessions fit around everyday commitments.
