About Isabelle
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 22 years' experience, Isabelle Dubois works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with addiction, grief, sleep problems, parenting pressures and career changes. Isabelle practises several relational and process-oriented approaches, and speaks English and French.
Isabelle draws on attachment-informed and emotionally focused ways of working alongside client-centred and mindfulness approaches. Sessions are conversational and aim to make thoughts and feelings easier to talk about. She pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns and to the emotions people bring into the room.
In practice Isabelle helps people name difficult feelings and test small changes. She uses solution-focused ideas to identify what’s already working and build on it. When trauma or abuse is present she takes a relational stance, looking at safety, trust and repair over time rather than assuming quick fixes.
People come for a mix of immediate coping help and longer-term change. Isabelle offers straightforward tools for managing anxiety and sleep, and space to talk through grief, family problems and life transitions. She also addresses concerns such as body image, codependency, commitment and communication problems.
Her background includes working in multicultural NHS settings with GP-referred clients and running a private practice. That mix shapes a practical, conversational style that combines short-term focus with attention to deeper attachment patterns. Sessions are offered in English and French and she practices under the BACP registration.

Approaches that guide online work
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships influence current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice how they seek closeness or push others away and practice different responses in everyday life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and shifting core emotions in relationships, helping with connection and recurring conflict. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person's own perspective and uses listening and reflection to deepen self-understanding and decision-making.Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will choose which methods to try. That collaborative planning can include short-term goals and longer conversations about attachment or emotions depending on what you want to work on.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support continuity across life changes and let people keep sessions during work or family commitments without needing a different location. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the chosen approaches to suit the online setting and practical circumstances.
