About Csilla
Csilla Hajnal is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey who focuses on practical, goal-oriented support. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, relationship struggles, trauma, and low self-esteem. Her style is straightforward and focused on clear steps toward change.
She draws on a range of evidence-based techniques and tailors a plan to each person’s needs. Sessions usually start with identifying immediate concerns and small, manageable goals to work toward.
Background and approach
Csilla emphasizes skills people can use between appointments to reduce stress and improve communication. Her background includes about ten years of clinical work in community and outpatient settings. That experience includes helping people with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and issues that accompany separation or divorce.
She has also supported people feeling isolated or overwhelmed by life changes. When relationship work is needed, Csilla uses the Prepare/Enrich assessment to map strengths and areas for growth. For parenting concerns she uses elements of the Nurtured Heart Approach to encourage positive behavior and clear boundaries.
These tools are used within a personalized plan rather than as a one-size-fits-all solution. Sessions are conversational and skills-based. Clients can expect a collaborative process that blends short-term coping strategies with longer-term work on thinking patterns and behavior change.
Progress is reviewed together so the plan stays relevant and practical.

How evidence-based techniques work online
Csilla uses several evidence-based therapeutic techniques in online sessions and adapts them to the format clients prefer. One common approach focuses on teaching practical coping skills for anxiety and anger, such as breathing, grounding, and short behavior changes that reduce reactivity. These tools are brief and often practiced between sessions to build momentum.Another approach helps people process trauma-related symptoms through stepwise exposure and grounding methods that reduce distress over time. This work emphasizes pacing and safety, and progresses at the client’s comfort level. When relationship concerns arise, she uses the Prepare/Enrich framework to identify strengths and communication patterns, then works on concrete exercises to improve interaction and problem solving.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose and adjust methods based on goals, preferences, and daily life demands. Sessions begin with clear goals and are reviewed regularly so techniques stay relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video is useful for longer talks and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when a shorter contact fits into a busy day.
