About Borbala

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is an integrative therapist based in the United Kingdom. She blends several practical approaches to help adults explore identity, relationships and emotional difficulties. Sessions are aimed at people who want a compassionate space to talk and to find clearer ways forward.

Bee works with stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, self-esteem concerns, parenting pressures and the effects of trauma or abuse.

Background and approach

LGBT issues and challenges around identity are a particular focus in her work. Her integrative way of working means she draws on different methods to suit each person. This can include cognitive behavioural techniques for managing thoughts and feelings, emotion-focused work for relationship patterns, and acceptance-based ideas for moving through painful emotions.

Practical tools such as journaling, chair work and working with images are offered when they seem helpful. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about how past experiences shape present behaviour. Bee pays attention to attachment and personality patterns so people can better understand how they relate to others.

The aim is to uncover strengths and try new ways of coping with recurring problems. With five years' experience, Bee brings a calm, accepting presence to sessions. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and also holds NCPS.

Sessions are available in English and Hungarian for adults aged 18 and over.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them. It focuses on values and small actions you can take to live a more meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, depression and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of connecting with others. It helps people identify repeated interaction styles and experiment with new ways of relating, which is useful for relationship problems and self-esteem issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which ideas to try first. That decision is made collaboratively and can change as the work develops.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone meetings, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.
