He focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, and grief.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and take small committed actions toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts without being driven by them. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that formed in early relationships and how they show up now, helping people improve connection and trust in current relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the session on the person's experience, following their lead and offering empathy and reflection to support change.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Tibor will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning means adjustments can be made as progress unfolds and new needs appear.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people access consistent support while managing work, caregiving, or health demands. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises from ACT, attachment work, and client-centered methods to an online setting so the focus stays on practical steps and stronger relationships.
