Isabelle Dubois, BACP

Isabelle Dubois is a counsellor with 22 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Isabelle encourages small steps and practical changes that fit into everyday life.

Isabelle draws on relationship-focused approaches to understand how past and present connections shape feelings. She listens for patterns in how people relate to others and themselves, then works with them to try different responses. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person’s needs.

Her background includes long experience in multicultural NHS settings and independent practice. She has supported people referred from general practice with a range of issues such as stress, anxiety, low mood and problems with confidence. That experience informs a pragmatic way of working in the room.

Isabelle also helps with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction concerns and sleep difficulties. She supports people facing life transitions, career uncertainty and parenting strain, and she addresses attachment and relationship worries. Her additional focus areas include body image, codependency, communication struggles and bereavement.

Sessions are offered in English and French. The first step is a brief matching questionnaire and then scheduling to suit the person’s availability. Isabelle aims to work collaboratively so people leave sessions with clearer options and manageable next steps.

How relational approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. It helps when people struggle with trust, closeness or repeated patterns in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy is built around listening without judgement and following the person’s own priorities to make sense of things and find what feels right.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working that suit those needs. Decisions about the method are made together and can change as progress is made.

Please confirm the therapist’s current session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify which online options are offered. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, enabling a shorter check-in during a work break, or removing the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt these sessions so they focus on practical coping skills, relationship patterns and emotional processing in ways that suit daily routines.
