About Szilvia

Szilvia Hornsby, NCPS, draws on four years of practice to offer a warm, person-focused approach. She builds a supportive space where people can talk through what’s holding them back and find their own way forward. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at practical change rather than labels or jargon.

Her main way of working comes from Client-Centred Therapy, which centres the person’s own experience and choices. She also uses ideas from Psychodynamic Therapy to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life stages. Together these approaches help when anxiety, low mood, grief or parenting stress feels overwhelming.

Sessions often focus on making small, realistic shifts. Szilvia helps people untangle feelings about pregnancy and childbirth, postpartum changes, body image, and relationship or intimacy issues. She also supports people facing divorce or separation, culture-related stress, and life transitions that can knock confidence and sleep.

Conversations cover both past experiences and what’s happening now, with an aim to spot repeated patterns and try new ways of reacting. Expect a collaborative tone: the person and therapist set goals together and test different steps to see what helps.

Szilvia works in English and Hungarian and accepts international clients. She practises from the United Kingdom and uses her NCPS credential as part of her professional identity. If someone prefers to begin, they can use the site’s Start Therapy button to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s lead. It aims to make the client feel understood and supported, helping them explore choices and gain confidence in decisions. This approach often helps with anxiety, low self-esteem, and the stress of life changes.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns from earlier relationships and experience. It helps people spot how past dynamics shape current feelings and reactions, which can be useful for grief, intimacy issues and long-standing anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then recommend which approach or combination to try. This is a collaborative process where adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so please confirm options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let sessions happen from wherever a person is based. It also allows people to work with a therapist across regions, which helps when living abroad or needing an English or Hungarian-speaking clinician.
