About Izabela
Izabela Burge offers a calm, steady presence for people feeling overwhelmed by sleep problems, stress or life changes. She focuses on helping individuals who struggle with anxiety, low mood, relationship strain or difficulties sleeping. Sessions aim to make day-to-day life easier by finding small, practical steps that fit into busy routines.
She adapts her work to each person rather than following a fixed script. Izabela blends talking therapy with focused techniques so people can try out tools and see what helps. She checks in regularly to make sure the approach feels useful and manageable.
Izabela holds a Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and is registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. She also trained in hypnotherapy and has a degree in Psychology and Public Relations, which inform her practical, down-to-earth style.
Her background includes roles supporting wellbeing in community and clinical settings, including work with bereavement services and mental health teams. That experience shapes how she supports people through grief, change and long-term stress.
In sessions she uses methods from client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help with sleep, coping skills and everyday worries. The focus is on clear, workable strategies tailored to each person’s life and goals.
How Izabela uses practical approaches online
Izabela commonly combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people manage sleep problems, anxiety and stress. Client-centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding, giving people space to talk and to shape the goals of their work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and uses simple, structured exercises to change patterns that interfere with sleep and daily functioning.She also draws on mindfulness practices to support calmer thinking and better sleep routines. Mindfulness involves short exercises that build awareness of thoughts and body sensations, which can be useful for reducing rumination at night or easing tension before sleep.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify what fits a person's needs and preferences, and will adjust techniques over time based on progress and feedback.
