About Rita
Rita Hercska is a UK-registered counsellor with HCPC registration and six years of practice. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, family and parenting challenges, relationship problems, grief, trauma and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Hungarian. Rita makes a point of treating each person as the expert on their own life and works collaboratively to set realistic goals.
Rita draws on client-centred ways of working alongside mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas. She also uses cognitive behavioural tools and family-systems perspectives to help people understand patterns that keep repeating. In sessions she talks through current problems, notices how past experiences shape present reactions, and tries simple, practical steps for coping and change.
Her style is interactive and direct. Rita aims to help people spot strengths and small steps they can use between sessions. She can help with life transitions, low mood, sleep and eating worries, career stress, ADHD-related struggles, and compassion fatigue among other concerns.
Rita does not provide legal or court documentation, diagnostic assessments, or letters for clinical purposes. People who need formal reports are asked to see an in-person provider. Instead she focuses on talk-based work that helps with everyday functioning and recurring difficulties.
To begin, prospective clients follow the standard sign-up flow and complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first session. That process helps match goals and practicalities so work can start quickly.
How Rita uses approaches online
Rita commonly blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises. Client-centred work focuses on listening and helping people name their priorities and strengths, which suits everyday problems like stress or parenting strain. CBT offers practical steps and thought-behaviour work to reduce anxiety, manage anger responses and improve sleep. Mindfulness helps people notice tension and use short practices to steady reactions and reduce rumination.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Rita will work collaboratively to identify which methods match the person's goals, preferences and current difficulties. She discusses options and adjusts the plan as the work progresses rather than fixing a single method from the start.
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 week, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins, and reduce travel time. It can also allow people to use audio-only sessions when bandwidth is limited or to keep sessions brief around work breaks. Registered professionals including therapists often combine short practical tasks with regular talks to help people apply changes in daily life.
