About Tibor
Tibor Baukal is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 17 years of clinical experience. He focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting, coping with life changes, stress and anxiety, addictions, grief, and intimacy-related issues among other areas. Tibor works with adults who struggle with people-pleasing, boundary setting, and patterns that leave them worn out by other people’s needs.
He uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what is happening in their relationships and daily life. Sessions are practical and grounded. Tibor listens for patterns around attachment, avoidance, and emotional reactivity, then helps clients notice options for change.
His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered methods, plus techniques from DBT and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That mix supports people dealing with codependency, abandonment issues, and difficulties with trust and intimacy. He aims to teach skills for managing strong emotion and staying present with hard experiences.
Tibor has worked across settings with adults facing complex challenges such as bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and addiction. He also addresses career stress, body image, and caregiver strain. The work often includes talking through patterns that repeat across relationships and practicing small, concrete changes.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. He asks questions, reflects what he hears, and suggests exercises to try between sessions. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Tibor’s approaches translate to online work
Tibor often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and making values-based choices. ACT helps when people feel stuck by old habits or worry that emotions control their behavior. He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and responses. This approach helps people understand trust and closeness issues without assigning blame.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tibor will talk with each person about their needs and goals and pick methods that fit those priorities. He collaborates on practical steps and checks in about what is helpful as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and let people choose whether to be on camera or not depending on what feels manageable.
