Life can throw tough challenges your way. If you've faced abuse or wrestle with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or grief, remember you're not alone. I'm here to provide caring support in your healing journey, offering a safe space to process, grow, and learn coping skills.

Counselling and psychotherapy enables you to look into what is going on for you in a judgement-free environment. Psychotherapy is also non-judgmental and takes place in a safe environment; but even so, it can delve deeper into feelings, perspectives, and personality.

Because I am fully trained in the person-centred approach, counselling and psychotherapy are usually combined together in my practice in Southampton. However, I have discovered that the therapeutic alliance itself, specifically the requirement of cultivating conditions, is restorative to healing.

Frequently, a relationship or a number of them is the source of disconnection and limitation, and therefore emotional turmoil.

Deeper feelings may rise and the sense of being understood during the therapeutic process; this can be a precise strong experience, or it can be a gentle support to self-understanding and recognition.

You may find that you connect with or discover more of yourself as a result which may be a painful experience. However, with this awareness, you may develop confidence in yourself and your judgement, and you may process towards growth.

As a person-centred psychotherapist based in Southampton, my passion is to help people deal with trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grieving, and addictions. I am committed to helping individuals to heal from their trauma and rediscovering their inner strength and resilience.

My career as a therapist began when I earned my bachelor's degree in Person-Centred Psychotherapy. During my training, I realised the person-centred approach had a profound impact on making clients feel seen, heard, and valued. The approach's emphasis on the therapeutic connection as a catalyst for healing and growth struck a deep chord with me.

In addition to my person-centred training, I hold a diploma in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I use ACT methods as a complementary modality, adapting my approach to the specific needs of each client. This combination enables us to collaborate on a therapeutic plan that fosters awareness, acceptance, and committed action in line with personal values.

In my work with clients, I create a safe and non-judgmental environment in which they may explore their experiences and feelings. I believe that each client is an expert on their own life, and my duty is to help them on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. I use a variety of methods to help clients develop a deeper understanding of their experiences and emotions, including empathy, reflection, validation, and exploration of core beliefs and values.

One of my strengths is helping clients build a sense of self-compassion and self-care. Many of us who struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, and other issues often grapple with feelings of shame, guilt, and low self-worth. I work with clients to challenge these negative beliefs and develop a more positive and compassionate relationship with themselves.

I recognise that the impact of trauma and other issues extends beyond the individual, affecting their relationships and interactions. Therefore, I also work with clients to navigate the complex dynamics within their relationships, fostering healthier and more supportive connections. I'm committed to ongoing education, I stay up-to-date with the latest research in trauma therapy and regularly attend workshops and retreats to deepen my own self-awareness and healing journey.

Counselling in Hungarian Language (Terápia Magyar Nyelven)

A haza édes nyelve sokszor jobban elősegíti a megnyílásunkat és fejlődésünket; olyan érzésvilágot tesz elérhetővé, ami más nyelven kevésbé lehetséges. Ha úgy érzi hogy a magyar szavak könnyebben jönnek, és szeretné a terápiát magyar nyelven lefolytatni, kérem jelezze ezt felém az első találkozásunk alkalmával!

Remote Counselling

To meet the needs of my clients, I provide online and telephone therapy. This allows you to use my services from the comfort of your own home. For online counselling, all you need is internet access via a mobile phone, tablet, or laptop. Or just a phone for telephone counselling.

Initial Session

I recognise that entering the world of counselling can be intimidating, so I offer a free 30-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together. Fee: free / 30 minutes

Fees

My counselling fees are based on a sliding scale, which means that we can adjust the cost of each session based on your individual financial circumstances. The range for my fees is between £45 and £55 per session, but I am happy to discuss options for lower fees if needed. My goal is to make counselling accessible to everyone, regardless of their income level.

You helped me connect my link between past relationships and my family and why I attracted and felt almost safe in toxic environments that were actually damaging me. And everything we discussed has been me realise and recognise my self worth. Without your help, I never would have put myself first and I would have always continued in my old ways. And everything I've learnt, I'm passing on to my son as it has benefitted me so incredibly much, I know it would benefit him. It's made me look at people in a very different way and I'm forever grateful for your help.
Client

It was useful for me to learn about the nature of the talk therapy approach. Our sessions helped me to realise that the CBT kind of therapy works better for me and it is more suitable to my personality. This is beacuse I need a target, and the option to try different techniques out to reach my target. I am glad to Brigitta to introduce the talk therapy to me and I enjoyed all of our sessions together. She provided a safe environment and I was happy to talk about my every day challenges in life.
Client

I came to Brigitta tired, lost, looking for direction and answers to who I am, what it means to be me, why I am suffering and what I need to do to improve my life. I've always thought I knew myself and the reasons I behave the way I do well but through talking with Brigitta I began to explore my thoughts and behaviours in an entirely new way. There is something about talking uninterrupted in a safe and trusted environment that allows you to explore parts of yourself that you normally hide or feel shame over, you may even walk into areas of your thoughts that you hadn't intended to because the flow of the conversation and your mind take you where you need to go. After exploring the issues I was having I gained new insights into myself but more importantly and without my noticing, I began to believe in my ability to trust myself and to accept being myself. For the first time in a long time I feel grateful and proud to be myself. I've gained new confidence and despite still not having everything figured out I finally feel strong enough to create the life I want to live and I have the trust in myself to do the work that needs to be done for that to happen. Without Brigitta I would never have got to this place, as I didn't even realise this is where I needed to be!
Client

Brigitta is a great therapist, I really felt like she understood me and I felt heard during our sessions, one way I could tell that she was really listening to me was that she knew how to reflect on what had been said in a way that focused on the parts of my story that I felt were most important to me, without me having to actually say they were. I never felt like our conversations had to be serious and couldn't be light-hearted if I wanted them to be, Brigitta knew how to match my energy and being able to express the full range of emotions in a conversation allowed me express myself completely without restriction. Everything from the sessions, to her emails and the energy of the room helped make me feel relaxed and safe, I never felt uncomfortable discussing topics such as payments or having to reschedule, and even when ending my time in therapy I didn't feel that this would become an uncomfortable conversation to have. I would 100% recommend Brigitta to anyone looking for therapy and with her free first consultation you have nothing to loose
