Elsa Shabani 

I am glad you found your way here!
My name is Elsa Shabani, and I am here to help. As a psychologist, my objective is to create a secure and empathetic space for my clients, both in-person in Budapest and virtually. Whether you're navigating life challenges, coping with losses, dealing with depression, anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, or traumas, there is always hope.

Working with me

Opening up to a complete stranger is a courageous endeavour which often is healing in itself. Life can present us with many challenges and defeats, allowing ourselves to work through these painful events can be daunting. My aim is to help you in this process of discovery by minimising your pain and supporting your growth & resilience while fostering learning and emotional safety in our sessions. This process can be achieved through emotional connection which is a powerful agent that we facilitate together in therapy. Counselling for me is a joint effort. I strive for creating a safe companionship and non-judgmental environment where you as my client can be your most authentic self. Creating this space is crucial for me in helping you process painful memories while striving to find and access fulfilment in your life.
