About me
Online counselling for individuals and couples
You may be feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted or stuck in patterns that seem difficult to change. Perhaps your relationship feels disconnected, you are struggling with communication, or you find yourself repeating patterns in relationships without understanding why. You may also recognise that experiences from your past are continuing to affect how you feel about yourself and relate to others.
I'm Isabelle, a qualified counsellor and registered member of the BACP, with 18 years' experience. I provide online counselling for individuals and couples across the UK, in both English and French.
My aim is to offer a calm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can speak openly, feel heard and begin to make sense of what you are experiencing. Together, we can explore your emotions, relationships and past experiences, understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and work towards meaningful change.
My core approach is person-centred, and I also integrate CBT-informed tools when these are helpful and appropriate. This means our sessions can be flexible and tailored to you. We might explore your experiences in greater depth, or focus on practical strategies such as managing difficult emotions, improving communication, developing clearer boundaries and making achievable changes.
I can support you with:
Anxiety, worry and feeling overwhelmed
Low mood and emotional exhaustion
Low self-esteem and lack of confidence
Relationship and communication difficulties
Recurring conflict or emotional distance
Childhood experiences and repeated relationship patterns
Family difficulties
Cross-cultural adjustment, isolation and belonging
Bereavement and other difficult life experiences
Alongside my private practice, I work within the NHS, supporting staff with professional and personal challenges.
As a native French speaker who has lived in the UK for many years, I understand the emotional impact of adjusting to another culture.
Finding the right counsellor matters. I therefore offer a free 30-minute online consultation through Zoom or WhatsApp, with no pressure or obligation. It is an opportunity to briefly discuss what is bringing you to counselling, ask questions and decide whether working together feels right for you.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
