Psychologist
My name is Emire Barath, and I am a psychologist who graduated from the ELTE Faculty of Education and Psychology with a Clinical and Health Specialisation. I am originally from Sweden and have a background and experience in medical studies from the University of Pécs Medical School. For many years, I worked as a healthcare provider in Hungary and Scandinavia. My work equipped me with knowledge and insight into multidisciplinary care in managing and treating various acute and chronic medical conditions. My experiences range from working in teams with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals and caring for people of varying ages, situations and needs, primarily neurological, psychiatric, and geriatric conditions and their treatment. I am skilled in mental health issues and health-related quality of life outcomes. I demonstrate cultural sensitivity and competency in understanding people with different backgrounds.
I changed my vocation since I discovered while working in the health sector that another aspect of healing is essential to me. I wanted to help people differently and turned to psychology, where the positive working alliance and psychological support became vital in my everyday work. I am passionate about mental health awareness and breaking down mental health stigmas and stereotypes to help people live a more fulfilling life. During my studies at ELTE, I co-founded an International Peer-Counselling Organisation that provides free counselling services in the English language to international students living abroad. I have helped many individuals of varying demographics, cultural backgrounds, and hardships.
Throughout my work, I help individuals to find their strengths to best manage their lives. I believe every person is their best expert. I use an integrative approach, building on person-centred, solution-focused, and cognitive behavioural therapy techniques. I tailor the process by attending to the client’s physical, mental, social, and emotional needs. Within the therapeutic relationship, we will work together to develop goals to support your individual needs and move towards change.
You can turn to me with various hardships such as:
-somatic problems, conditions, and diseases,

-psychological health consultation,
-supportive therapy,
– health awareness,
– anxiety,
– stress,
– depression,

In addition to Hungarian, I provide psychological consultations and counselling services in English and Swedish.
I look forward to meeting and working with you!
