About Isabel

BACP therapist (MBACP) with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Isabel Stock mainly uses a client-centred approach and also draws on trauma-focused methods. She works with people affected by trauma, eating concerns, depression, ADHD and LGBT issues.

Isabel describes herself as person-centred, which means sessions focus on what matters to the individual. She listens for the person behind the problem and helps them name what they want to change. She also uses trauma-focused techniques with people who have experienced physical, sexual or domestic violence.

She has particular experience supporting people with eating difficulties and body-image concerns. Isabel identifies as plus-size and says this informs her understanding of fat-related trauma and the pressures people face around body size. She also provides a space to discuss gender and sexuality.

Her work includes helping people with depression and anxiety, and she has experience with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD and autism. She pays attention to attachment and relationship issues that affect how people manage everyday life and stress.

Practical matters are straightforward: sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the See online therapy options button. Isabel aims to help people articulate goals and find workable steps forward.

How her approaches inform remote sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. In practice this means sessions start with what the person wants to talk about and the therapist reflects and helps clarify goals. This approach suits people who want a respectful space to make sense of feelings and decisions. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of physical, sexual or domestic violence and other traumatic events. Work may include building coping strategies, naming traumatic memories and reducing their impact on day-to-day life. This approach is used when trauma is a clear part of the difficulty presented. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods to use, matching the choice to a person's needs, goals and preferences rather than assuming one way fits all. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions without video if someone prefers less bandwidth or a quieter setup. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly adapt pace and tasks for remote sessions to keep progress practical and manageable.
