Brigitta Rab Integrative Counsellor London E8Brigitta Rab:

Trainee Integrative Counsellor (BACP student member)


My name is Brigitta Rab. I am a registered student member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

I work with adults in a safe, warm, and non-judgemental space providing therapy sessions online and in person at HQ Therapy in Haggerston.

I finished the Counselling undergraduate course at the University of East London in 2023.

I hold an offer to the Addiction MSc at King’s College London. I am planning to gain more knowledge in addiction therapy, prevention, and recovery.

I believe that as human beings, we are all experiencing difficult emotions and feelings and finding ourselves in difficult situations because of these.

There is no shame in needing help in untangling emotions and navigating life-challenging situations.

I help my clients through a range of difficulties, especially with existential issues, anxiety, depression and loneliness. I am open to working with addictive behaviours, easing the guilt and shame around addiction.

I believe addiction is a coping mechanism for an underlying, sometimes unconsciously, hidden issue, or it also could derive from trauma as a response to masking guilt and shame. I believe that in our society, we have created some misconceptions around this topic, and I am here to helping to change the attitude around it.

I am here to help in this journey towards getting better and ease the heaviness of the challenges as an experienced, understanding and non-judgemental therapist.

The Integrative approach allows the sessions to be uniquely tailored to every client’s needs. I draw from many types of therapy modalities, such as existential, psychodynamic and person-centred.

  • I support clients to access their self-compassion, build acceptance of themselves, gain self-confidence, finding inner freedom.
  • I believe that understanding and approaching ourselves with acceptance and self-compassion could help us to find the path to freedom and joy.
  • I believe meditation and the use of mindfulness and breathing exercises are great tools, especially when working with anxiety.
  • I believe working together with clients with challenging decisions and behavioural patterns could transform their life.
  • I am an open-minded person with an honest heart whose passion is to be challenged by a different kind of thinking and who likes to contemplate the world with curiosity.
  • I am a Hungarian woman who arrived in London in 2011 and has worked in Hospitality since then in restaurants and hotels, seeing and knowing the hardship of the working class. In my family, I have experienced addiction closely, which awakened my interest in this subject.

If my introduction made you feel interested in working with me, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I offer therapy both in English and Hungarian.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply get in touch with us using the low-cost help and advice form and one of our fully qualified therapists can work with you to make sure you get the right advice you need in order to receive the correct low-cost therapy and counselling services you require.
