About Isabel
Isabel Stock is a BACP-registered therapist in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works primarily using a person-centred approach and also applies trauma-informed methods. Isabel focuses on life purpose concerns alongside mental health issues such as depression, eating difficulties, ADHD and the impacts of trauma.
She supports people affected by physical, sexual or domestic violence and can talk through body image and fat-related trauma from a lived-experience perspective. Isabel also offers a space for exploring gender and sexual identity and for people in the LGBT community to discuss related concerns.
In sessions she uses client-centred listening to help people clarify what matters to them now. Trauma-focused tools are used when past events continue to affect day-to-day life. Work often balances present-focused coping with understanding how earlier experiences shape current choices.
Isabel has experience with neurodivergent clients and people managing anxiety alongside other issues. She also addresses problems linked to caregiving, chronic illness, relationship communication, and separation. Practical conversations about routine, supports and adjustments are common in her work.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. People are invited to bring whatever feels relevant, from questions about career direction to managing low mood or difficult memories. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How Isabel uses client-centred and trauma-focused work online
Isabel practices Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people identify what matters to them. This approach supports people deciding what to change next, whether that involves work, relationships or daily routines.She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy approaches when past abuse or harmful events continue to affect mood, behaviour or relationships. Those methods aim to reduce the hold of distressing memories and help people manage strong emotional reactions in the present.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Isabel will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then agree together on which methods to use. That collaborative planning can change over time as needs shift.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make shorter check-ins easier and offers options when low energy or chronic illness make leaving home difficult.
