About Szilvia
Szilvia Hornsby is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has four years of professional experience. She works in the United Kingdom and supports adults with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. Szilvia also focuses on young adult issues including leaving home, first jobs and identity questions, as well as grief, parenting and sleep problems.
She uses an approach shaped by Client-Centred Therapy. That means sessions centre on the person's experience and what matters most to them. Conversations aim to help people notice patterns that get in the way and try different responses that fit their life.
Szilvia also draws on Psychodynamic Therapy to look at how past experiences and close relationships influence current feelings and behaviour. This can help when someone repeatedly feels stuck or finds intimate relationships challenging.
Her sessions are described as collaborative. She invites people to reflect on what they want to change and to explore practical steps for getting there. Topics she commonly addresses include attachment issues, body image, multicultural concerns, and aspects of pregnancy, postpartum and women's health.
Szilvia offers work in English and Hungarian and accepts international clients. Prospective clients follow an online matching process to arrange a first session and pay via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the centre of sessions and focuses on what the person is experiencing now. The counsellor listens without directing solutions and helps the client name feelings and priorities, which can be helpful for stress, self-esteem and life-change issues.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and repeated patterns influence current emotions and behaviour. Working this way can help when someone feels stuck in similar relationship difficulties or struggles with intimacy and attachment.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical concerns together and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as sessions progress.

Online sessions can be useful for fitting counselling into study or work schedules, reducing travel time, and allowing shorter check-ins or flexible timings when days are busy. Registered or accredited professionals can work with international clients, but check format details when arranging the first appointment.
