I am Anna Üveges, psychologist, researcher, Ultrabrief Therapy Consultant, SomatoDrama Facilitator, Compassionate Inquiry Mentee and artist.
I am also the author of the book Understanding the Mind Through Bodily Experience: The SomatoDrama Effect Model (published in 2026 by Routledge Books, Abingdon, UK).
The title of the Hungarian publication is: Lelkünk üzenete testünk útjain – A SzomatoDráma-hatásmodell (published in 2024 by Medicina Publishing House, Hungary).
Increasingly, I find that it is vital to stay in touch with ourselves in the midst of our hectic everyday lives, and that our own body signals are more than authentic and unvarnishedly honest signposts. The question is, are we paying enough attention to them?

I was born in 1998 in Novi Sad, in the former Yugoslavia. I graduated from the Institute of Psychology (Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences) at the Károli Gáspár University of the Reformed Church, in Budapest, Hungary.
In addition to individual consultations, I lead self-awareness groups based on my own methodology and method development.
I strive to guide my clients on the path to emotional and physical healing through a contemporary methodological approach, focusing on the journey toward self-identity.
From February 2026, I continue my training in the Compassionate Inquiry body- and trauma-focused psychotherapy methodology of, developed by Dr. Gábor Máté and Sat Dharam Kaur. My goal is to reach the Practitioner level.
In March 2024, I participated in the Somatic Experiencing® (SE®) Introductory Workshop, which is based on the findings of Peter Levine, an internationally recognized trauma researcher and psychotherapist with 45 years of successful clinical practice behind him. As it takes a body-based approach to resolving trauma, shock, and other stress-related disorders, the method is considered groundbreaking. It integrates findings from the physiological, psychological, ethological, biological, and neuroscientific study of stress, as well as from ancient healing traditions and biophysical research. The SE® method aims to safely release the excess energy trapped in the body due to overload, thereby enabling the natural healing and transformation of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as well as emotional and early childhood traumas (source: https://www.sehungary.com/en).
I started my practice as psychologyst in 2022 in Budapest at the Mindset Therapy and Counseling Centre (Mindset Terápiás és Tanácsadó Központ), where, in addition to accompanying individual self-awareness processes, I also worked as a research group leader until 2024. I facilitated in Budapest and across the country personality development groups for young people interested in the practice of psychology and self-awareness.
From January 2024 to May 2026, I continued my private practice at the Space for
Change Psychological Centre founded by the psychologyst Viktória Gergely (Változás Tere Pszichológiai Központ) in Budapest.
I am currently in the process of setting up my own permanent practice space, fulfilling a long-held dream: individual and group sessions can be held in a context I envisioned myself and optimized for my methods.
As a practising psychologist with a body- and trauma-informed integrative approach, I am currently:
– a professional member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA)
and
– working in collaboration with the Wellbeing Social Hub (WSH) professional community on mental health development and research as a WSH Certified Provider.

I integrate my work as a psychologist with the intensive, deep and effective consultation method of Ultrabrief Therapy® developed by Dr. László Buda, which allows you to gain insights into the psychological factors, relationship patterns and functioning behind your physical or life symptoms in a reasonable time, but at your own pace. Awareness of these is in itself a healing process: the method supports self-healing processes in a personalised and practice-oriented way and relieves stress and anxiety, while the steps to reach the desired goal, the "how to go on", become easier to outline. These are also key points for recognising your own potential and role in a crisis. Especially when you feel you may have lost your inner grip and control over what is happening in your life.
My profession is a unique combination of spiritual care, scientific research and artistic creation. The focus of my professional interests is the relationship between body and soul, the world of the practice and study of body-oriented methods based on a nondual approach. In this context, I am credited with the development of the first autonomous analytical model based on a scientific investigation of the efficacy of the SomatoDrama® method, and the development of a drawing methodology that integrates body-focused approaches with traditional right-brain drawing. To this day, our meeting with my Master, Prof. Dr. Emőke Bagdy, is the first milestone in my commitment to spiritual help. My big dream was fulfilled when I was able to embark on the path of education in trauma therapy through the method of Dr. Gábor Máté, a Canadian doctor, writer and trauma therapist of Hungarian origin, Sat Dharam Kaur ND. The Compassionate Inquiry (CI) method stands for Compassionate Exploration. It is a body- and trauma-based psychotherapy method optimized for exploring, processing and resolving trauma. In June 2025 I have completed a 330-hour professional training based on CI. The completion of this year is a decisive and important milestone because I can now incorporate the approach into my work as a CI-informed psychologist being a Compassionate Inquiry Trainee, and it also lays the foundation for achieving the CI Practitioner level. This is the next step I plan to take, which is the goal for next year.

As a private person, I also believe that it is important to connect not only when everything is „fine” in our lives. The real power lies in daring to ask for help when we feel we cannot climb the mountains ahead of us alone. I help you on your journey to physical and spiritual healing with a modern toolkit that I feel is effective, profound and long-lasting in my own life to this day.
During our individual sessions, I can support you you will have the opportunity to reconnect with your identity in a safe space of connection, to live your true emotions through your body’s messages, to experience your power and your inner axis that keeps you in balance, which are your inexhaustible spiritual resources for a lifetime.
