Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab , BACP, NCPS

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab blends person-centred care with practical psychological methods to help people make sense of difficult feelings. She offers straightforward, compassionate support for adults who are wrestling with identity, relationships and life transitions. Bee works in English and Hungarian and practices in the United Kingdom.

Bee describes her approach as integrative, which means she draws on several therapies to match the work to the person. That can look like talking through patterns that cause distress, trying small behavioural experiments, or reflecting on how past relationships influence current ones.

She often helps people who face stress, anxiety, depression, grief and struggles with self-esteem. Her pages also note support for LGBT concerns, parenting strain, career shifts, trauma and abuse, and coping with major life changes. Bee pays particular attention to issues around attachment, abandonment and communication problems.

Sessions may include practical exercises such as journaling, guided imagery, chair work or looking at dreams when useful. These options are presented as tools to try rather than fixed requirements, so clients choose what feels helpful.

With five years of practice and professional registration with BACP and NCPS, Bee aims to create a calm working relationship. She focuses on helping people recognise strengths, practise new ways of coping and make gradual changes that match their values and goals.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) asks people to notice thoughts and feelings without fighting them and to choose actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and build a life that feels meaningful despite tough emotions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current patterns of relating. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeated relationship difficulties to understand and change those patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they choose techniques and pace the sessions so the work fits the individual's needs.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can suit short check-ins or slower reflection. These options give flexibility so people can maintain continuity and try different formats as therapy progresses.
