About Regina

BACP. 4 years' experience. Regina Sinkovicz works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and relationship and intimacy concerns. She describes herself as an integrative counsellor and uses several approaches to suit what each person brings to sessions.

Regina says she treats clients as the expert in their own lives. She focuses on practical conversation and strategies rather than labels. Conversations cover coping with strong emotions, substance and behavioural addictions, sleep problems and career stress. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image and recovery after separation.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Client-Centred work alongside existential and mindfulness ideas. That means sessions can include noticing thoughts, building skills to manage distress and reflecting on personal values and choices. Sessions are described in straightforward terms aimed at making change manageable.

Regina works in English and Hungarian and practises in the United Kingdom. She notes that work varies by person and that she adapts methods depending on what someone needs in the moment. The focus is on practical steps and on understanding patterns that keep problems going.

She also lists a wide range of additional focus areas including codependency, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, dissociation, commitment and control issues. Those topics are offered within the integrative counselling framework she describes.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her work focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used with stress, anxiety, low mood and problems with motivation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive behaviours such as substance use or self-sabotage. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a respectful, listening-based conversation that helps people clarify their own goals and make decisions.

Choosing the right method is part of the process in early sessions. The counsellor will work collaboratively to see which approach fits the client's needs, goals and day-to-day life. Some people find mindfulness and values work helpful first, while others benefit from skills-based DBT exercises; the plan can change as work proceeds.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session formats before booking as none are specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins where needed and avoid travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue work while managing health, work or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, use different ways of working online and this counsellor will discuss the practical options when you begin.
