About Izabela

Izabela Burge offers a calm, practical approach for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or big life changes. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients feel heard and to work out what matters most to them. Izabela is based in the United Kingdom and provides therapy in English.

Izabela follows a client-centred way of working, so sessions focus on the individual’s needs and priorities. She combines that with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness tools to help manage worrying thoughts and daily stress. Hypnotherapy and psychodynamic ideas also inform her work when they fit the client’s goals.

She is registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, NCPS, and has a Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling. Her background includes roles with Mind South Kent, Place2Be and Cruse Bereavement, where she supported people through loss and mental health challenges.

Izabela adapts the pace and focus of sessions to what feels useful for each person. That can mean practical strategies for sleep or coping, or time spent looking at patterns that explain difficult feelings. She checks in regularly so clients stay in control of their work together.

Her experience also covers caregiver stress, chronic illness, addictions, body image and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Izabela aims to help people find manageable steps forward and to build on their strengths.

To begin, clients follow the site’s matching process and schedule sessions according to availability. The emphasis is on clear, compassionate support that fits into everyday life.

How Izabela’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person says is most important. Online sessions let the counsellor and client shape conversations around the client’s needs, whether the aim is short-term support or deeper personal work.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks down difficult thoughts and behaviours into manageable steps. Online work often uses simple exercises and practical homework to help change worrying patterns and improve sleep or daily routines.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and grounding skills to reduce stress and rumination. These practices can be introduced and practised during remote sessions and then used between meetings to steady mood and focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Izabela will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods over time. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan stays useful and realistic.

The biography lists online, telephone and messaging counselling as offered formats. If you need clarification about which formats are available for your situation, check before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so counselling fits around work, childcare or other commitments.
