About Isabelle
Isabelle Dubois is a counsellor with 22 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and has spent much of her career supporting people who come with stress, anxiety, low mood and difficulties in relationships. She also helps with sleeping problems, grief, addiction and parenting pressures. Isabelle offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can begin to talk about what feels hard.
In sessions she focuses on the relationship between emotions and everyday life. She listens to how worries and past hurts affect current choices. Clients can expect practical conversation about coping, and space to reflect on what they value and want to change.
Her background includes counselling for GP-referred clients in a multicultural NHS setting and running a private practice. That experience means she is used to working with a wide range of concerns and life stages. She commonly supports people facing career change, family conflict, body-image worries and the fallout from separation or domestic violence.
Isabelle draws on attachment-based and emotionally-focused approaches alongside client-centred and mindfulness-informed ways of working. These methods are used to notice emotions, improve communication and build steadier routines around sleep and self-care.
She speaks English and French. If you are thinking about starting therapy, Isabelle asks people to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to her availability.
How Isabelle’s approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships shape current emotions and reactions, helping people understand why they respond in certain ways and how to form steadier patterns. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the moment, giving space for their thoughts and feelings to be heard and helped to make sense. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to emotional bonds and communication, which can be useful for managing grief, attachment issues, and interpersonal stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Isabelle will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods and tasks that feel workable. The process is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to meet from a quieter environment or join from a different part of the country, while retaining the same therapeutic focus on sleep, anxiety and relationship concerns.
