About Tibor
Tibor Baukal is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Pennsylvania with 17 years of experience. He helps people who are struggling with relationship problems, family conflict, trauma and abuse, anxiety, and other life stresses. He focuses on practical support for everyday problems such as parenting, grief, sleep and eating concerns, addiction, and work-related stress.
He encourages open conversation about thoughts and feelings. Sessions are meant to be straightforward and nonjudgmental. He aims to help people identify what matters to them and the next small steps they can try.
In longer-term work he draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and how people respond to distress. He also uses Client-Centered methods and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when skills practice or emotion regulation is useful.
Tibor has supported people through major life changes, caregiving stress, and grief. He also works with sexual and identity concerns, including LGBT issues, and relationship topics like commitment, intimacy, and blended family challenges. He offers practical coaching-style help alongside therapeutic work when that fits a person’s goals.
He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription system for sessions, and the subscription can be canceled at any time.
How Tibor’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and try small, values-based steps despite difficult feelings. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance patterns, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current bonds and helps people notice interaction cycles that affect trust and closeness. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions in relationships and helps people name and respond to feelings in ways that change interaction patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tibor will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to use, based on their goals, history, and what they prefer. He often blends approaches so sessions focus on practical skills, emotional connection, and values-based steps together.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some methods lend themselves to skill practice and brief exercises that fit well into remote sessions, while others focus on relationship patterns and longer conversations. Discussing which format works for a person’s schedule and needs is part of the first sessions.
