Portrait of Mária Babity
About me in brief

I believe there is always a way forward

I am convinced that in any stage of life we are capable of development and of growth in the psychological sense. But in any stage of life we may also face extraordinary difficulties, when we may feel uncertain, stuck, or left alone with our problems.

At such times the supportive presence of a professional can help: someone before whom we can unfold our difficulties with trust and honesty, and find a way out.

As a psychologist I do my work focusing on development, deeper self-knowledge and strengthening individual coping, in an accepting, supportive and compassionate atmosphere. I believe that one of the closest synonyms of the word “development” is “unfolding”.

As a mediator I aim for the disputed questions to be settled in a way that is acceptable, mutually agreeable and constructive for each of the parties in conflict.

As a trainer I deeply believe in the power of learning and practice through playful, situational experience. Whether the subject is self-knowledge or honing communication and conflict-management skills, I regard it as essential that participants can try themselves out in new situations in a relaxed and encouraging atmosphere.

Further information

We help you find your bearings

Are you unsure whether you need psychological counselling? The questions and answers below may help you find your bearings.

How can I know that I need psychological counselling?

If you feel that a problem has already been present for a longer time, takes too much energy, or you cannot find a solution on your own, it is worth turning to a psychologist.

Many people get in touch in such situations: because of lasting stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, decision dilemmas, a lack of self-confidence, grief or burnout.

When is it worth turning to a psychologist?

When you feel that the burdens of everyday life exceed your capacity to cope.

You do not have to be in a “very bad state” to ask for help — many people get in touch at the first stuck point, uncertainty or change in life situation.

How can I request an appointment?

Requesting an appointment requires registration. During registration you will need to answer a few clarifying questions so that I can understand your situation and decide whether your problem falls within my competence.

After registration I, as the psychologist, give you an appointment on an administrative interface. Later, as a registered user, you will also be able to book an appointment yourself.

What happens after registration?

On the basis of the answers you give, I look at whether your problem can be addressed within psychological counselling.

If so, I will get in touch with you and we will arrange a first appointment. If your problem belongs with another professional, you will receive feedback on that as well.

What happens at the first session?

The first meeting is an introductory, exploratory conversation in which we review your situation, your aims and how we can work together.

There is no right or wrong answer — this is a safe space where you can speak honestly about what is on your mind.

How many sessions are needed?
