About Isabelle
Isabelle Dubois is a counsellor with 22 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she supports people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship difficulties. Isabelle also helps with issues such as grief, sleep problems, addictions and coping with life changes.
She draws on a relational, integrative way of working that puts the person at the centre. Sessions are conversational and aimed at understanding what matters to the individual.
Background and approach
Isabelle listens for patterns in relationships and emotional responses, then helps people try different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce distress. Her background includes many years offering counselling in a multicultural NHS setting and running a independent practice. That experience means she is used to short-term work and longer therapy, and to people who come with several issues at once.
She uses practical exercises alongside reflective conversation to make progress between sessions. Isabelle offers care in both English and French. She aims to make the therapy room calm and non-judgemental so people can speak honestly about painful experiences.
The goal is to find manageable steps that bring relief and renewed direction. People who want to begin are guided through a simple matching process and can choose a session format that suits their day. Isabelle encourages clients to set small, realistic goals and to review progress together over time.

Online support
She also uses client-centred methods that focus on the individual’s experience and pace. Sessions emphasise empathetic listening and helping people find their own answers rather than being told what to do.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another method she draws on to help people name and work with strong emotions. EFT can be helpful where emotional patterns cause relationship strain or ongoing distress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Isabelle will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and adapt methods as therapy progresses. The plan is collaborative and reviewed regularly so the approach matches the person’s changing priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit brief conversations into a busy day. These formats help people access consistent support around work, family and other commitments.
