About Hajnal

Hajnal Littler is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and a wide range of relationship and life concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Hungarian and she accepts international clients.

Hajnal focuses on helping people manage strong emotions and painful events. She uses practical talking and reflective techniques so people can make clearer decisions about their next steps. Conversations tend to centre on what is happening now and on small changes that feel possible in day-to-day life.

Her background includes work with grief, loss and addiction, and she has supported people facing trauma and anger. She aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into manageable pieces. That often means tracking patterns of thinking and behaviour, and trying short experiments to see what helps.

Hajnal draws on several approaches to therapy. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify what matters to them. She also works from attachment-based and client-centred perspectives to understand how past relationships shape present reactions. Cognitive and emotion-focused techniques are used when helpful to address specific thoughts and feelings.

People who come for help might be coping with parenting pressures, difficulties in intimate relationships, or career stress. Hajnal also supports those dealing with sleep or eating concerns, body image, chronic illness, caregiving strain and neurodivergent needs. She invites a steady, plainspoken process rather than sudden fixes.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online work

Hajnal commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches in her practice. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on clarifying personal values to guide action. It can help when worry, avoidance or low motivation get in the way of everyday life.

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current reactions and patterns. It can be useful for people who notice repeating relationship difficulties or strong emotional responses rooted in past experiences. Client-Centred therapy prioritises the person’s perspective and aims to make space for honest, non-directive conversation that helps someone make sense of their situation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and choose methods together based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative decision helps keep sessions practical and relevant.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel or making shorter check-ins possible during a break. Registered or accredited professionals can use different ways of meeting remotely, and the choice is usually made to suit the person’s routine and technical setup.
