Mr Moty Alkalay, MA

Counseling Psychologist

“An international psychologist working in English and Hebrew as a mental health counsellor, with people who struggle with various aspects of life. I use humanistic and psychodynamic approaches while putting attachment theory in mind and emphasizing the relationship with the client and his strengths and motivations.”

About Me

I support individuals navigating life's varied challenges. Working in English and Hebrew, I use humanistic and psychodynamic approaches, always keeping attachment theory in mind. I emphasise our therapeutic relationship, helping you connect with your unique motivations and strengths. This collaborative space is ideal for those seeking deeper self-understanding and clarity.

Approach

Sessions move at a pace you set, attending to immediate struggles while gently tracing patterns rooted in how you relate to others. Meeting in Budapest or online, in English or Hebrew, I keep sessions practical and attentive—short reflections, deeper explorations, and occasional tasks between meetings to test new ways of relating. We look closely at transitions, body image and burnout through curiosity about attachment experiences, noticing bodily signals and emotional stories that steer choices. People seeking clearer direction and steadier connections often find this balance of presence and exploration useful.
