Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab

Borbala (Bee) Shehata-Jakab is an integrative therapist and clinical supervisor working with adults aged 18 and over in the United Kingdom. With five years of professional experience, she creates a safe and compassionate environment where people can explore aspects of themselves they may not have previously discussed.

Shehata-Jakab emphasises a confidential, empathic and accepting atmosphere that supports honest questioning, reflection and expression of each person’s unique self. Through a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, she works collaboratively with clients to navigate the complexities of life.

Her integrative practice allows her to draw from psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural (CBT) perspectives, tailoring interventions to meet individual needs. She also offers optional creative methods such as dreamwork, chair work, therapeutic journaling and the use of images and symbols to enrich the healing process.

A particular focus of her counselling is the exploration of identity and personality within relationships. Difficulty expressing or accepting one’s true identity can give rise to feelings such as guilt, low self-esteem or anger, and Shehata-Jakab supports clients in uncovering strengths and developing new skills to manage life’s challenges.

She provides an open, supportive space for processing emotions and strengthening a sense of identity, working together with clients to understand how past and present experiences shape who they are and who they want to become.
