About Isabelle
Isabelle Dubois is a BACP-registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 22 years of experience. She sees people who bring common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Isabelle also helps with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions and grief.
She has a background working in multicultural NHS settings and with GP-referred clients. That experience means she is used to short-term and longer-term work for practical problems like sleeping difficulties, parenting strain and career changes. She also supports people dealing with family problems, divorce and separation, and caregiving stress.
Isabelle works from a relational integrative stance. She describes approaches that include Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based work and Client-Centred methods. In practice this means she attends to feelings in relationships, how early attachment shapes patterns, and the person’s own preferences for how to talk things through.
Sessions tend to focus on naming hard-to-identify emotions, looking at how they affect choices, and trying small changes that feel manageable. She uses mindfulness and solution-focused ideas when helpful, and can address issues such as body image, codependency and commitment worries.
Isabelle offers therapy in English and French. Her private practice complements her NHS experience, and she asks people to use the site’s matching process to choose and schedule a first appointment. Costs vary by location and are paid through a cancellable subscription.
How Isabelle uses EFT and relational approaches online
Isabelle uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name strong emotions and see how those feelings affect relationships and choices. EFT focuses on emotional moments and how they shape patterns of connection and response.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early bonds influence current relationship behaviour. That approach can be useful for people noticing repeated patterns of closeness and distance. Her Client-Centred work means conversations are guided by the person’s priorities and pace, with simple, straightforward reflection and listening.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Isabelle will discuss what feels most helpful and try different ways of working based on the person’s needs and goals. That decision is collaborative and revisited as things change.
