Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab, BACP, NCPS

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is an integrative therapist who blends several approaches to help people make sense of difficult life moments. She works with adults and focuses on creating a calm and accepting space where clients can talk about things they have not shared before. Bee uses straightforward language and practical tools in sessions to help people uncover strengths and manage emotional strain.

With five years of experience, she draws on a mix of psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural viewpoints. That flexibility means she can adapt the work to each person rather than following a single method. Creative techniques such as dreamwork, chair work, therapeutic journaling and using images or symbols may be offered when helpful and are optional.

A key focus is on identity and personality within relationships. Bee helps people understand how their past experiences shape current feelings about self and connections with others. She aims to support clearer self-expression and improved self-esteem through steady, reflective work.

Common themes she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and day-to-day coping with life changes. She also works with concerns such as parenting strain, career decisions, communication problems and commitment issues. Her approach is collaborative and paced to the individual.

Bee is based in the United Kingdom and works in English and Hungarian. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and brings a compassionate, patient tone to therapy conversations.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it focuses on choosing actions that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and major life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns, often helping with anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships affect current connections and sense of self, supporting work on identity, trust and close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice is reviewed over time so the work can change as progress is made.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use creative tools such as journaling or imagery between meetings so the work continues between sessions.
