About Annette
Annette Isibor is a BACP-credentialed counsellor in the United Kingdom with 21 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also helps with addictions, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain and anger problems.
Her approach is practical and conversational. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred ways of working. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, naming difficult feelings and trying small changes that can make daily life feel less hard.
Annette pays attention to attachment and relational themes when they matter. That means looking at how past losses or early relationships shape current responses. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that fit their values.
People who come to her can expect straightforward discussion about current problems and repeated moments to check what is working. She will use different methods as useful rather than sticking to a single model. This can include practical steps from CBT alongside slower, emotion-focused exploration.
Annette offers sessions in English and works with international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled.
How Annette uses emotion-focused and behavioural approaches online
Annette draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with hard-to-identify feelings. EFT looks at emotional patterns and how they affect relationships and everyday reactions. It can be useful where attachment or recurring emotional responses are causing distress.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. ACT techniques support acceptance of feelings while focusing on behaviour change. Cognitive behavioural methods are used for practical skills such as managing anxiety, sleep or unhelpful thinking patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Annette will discuss options and make decisions with each person based on their needs and goals. That means trying different methods and checking what helps over time rather than committing to one style from the start.
