About Isabel

Isabel Stock is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to support people as they talk through distressing life events. She holds BACP registration and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Isabel aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can bring their whole selves and be heard.

Isabel combines client-centred practice with trauma-focused ideas and some cognitive behavioural therapy skills. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual, with pacing set by the person in the room.

Background and approach

She listens for patterns and then explores practical ways to reduce distress and build steadier coping. She has worked with people affected by physical, sexual or domestic violence and brings that experience into trauma-focused work. Isabel also supports people who want to talk about gender, sexuality and LGBT issues, and those coping with eating difficulties and body image concerns.

Isabel is open about being part of the LGBTQ+ community and being plus size, which shapes how she understands body-related harm and fat-related trauma. She welcomes conversations about identity, attraction and the effects of stigma. People who are neurodivergent, living with depression or experiencing anxiety may find her approach helpful.

Isabel also addresses related areas such as caregiving stress, chronic illness, attachment concerns and relationship communication problems. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used and appointments are scheduled according to the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Isabel works online

Isabel uses client-centred methods that put the person's experience first. This approach means the therapist listens carefully, follows the person's pace and helps them name what matters. It is often useful for identity concerns, body image and ongoing mood difficulties.

Her trauma-focused work concentrates on the effects of past harm and how those experiences shape daily life now. This approach involves gentle, step-by-step exploration of memories and reactions, alongside practical strategies to manage distress and rebuild a sense of safety in everyday situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Isabel will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps make therapy feel relevant and manageable.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone keep in touch with a familiar therapist across moves within the same country. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find digital sessions a flexible way to continue care while balancing everyday demands.
