About Norbert

Counsellor (BACP) with 3 years of professional experience, based in the United Kingdom. Norbert Adorjan works with people facing addictions, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and related concerns such as anxiety, depression and stress.

He uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and elements of the Gottman Method. Sessions focus on clear conversation about current problems and practical steps to make things more manageable. Norbert aims to adapt the pace and topics to what the person brings each week.

In practice he helps people understand how past relationships affect present reactions. He uses CBT tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to try alternative responses. With relationship-related concerns he can draw on EFT and the Gottman Method to work on connection and communication.

Typical issues addressed include addiction and substance use, intimacy and attachment problems, anger and self-esteem, grief and life changes, parenting worries, and work or career stress. Additional areas mentioned include abandonment, codependency, fertility worries, and immigration-related stress.

Sessions are conducted in English, Hungarian and Romanian. Norbert is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment.

How Norbert uses attachment, CBT and relationship work online

Norbert draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current behaviours and emotional responses. This approach helps when people feel stuck in repeated cycles of distancing or clinging in close relationships.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical alternatives. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress and managing addictive urges by setting small, achievable behavioural steps.

For relationship and intimacy issues he can apply Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and aspects of the Gottman Method to work on communication, emotional connection and problem-solving between partners. These methods focus on interactions and feelings that keep conflict active.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the early sessions. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as needs change. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.

If you want to know the exact session formats offered, confirm the current options before booking. Practical advantages of online sessions include fitting appointments around work or family commitments, shorter check-ins when time is tight, and the ability to take part without travelling. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools and exercises to work in a remote setting.
