Annette Isibor is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and trauma.

About Annette

Annette Isibor is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She supports those facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, addictions and difficulties with intimacy. Annette also works with people coping with sleep and eating issues, anger and parenting challenges.

She brings 21 years of experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation. Sessions begin with a simple conversation about what you want to change and what matters most to you.

Background and approach

That helps shape a clear, practical plan rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Annette draws on a mix of approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy, attachment-based work and client-centred methods. She adapts the method to the issue at hand, for example using CBT techniques for anxious thoughts and attachment-focused discussions for long-standing relationship patterns.

The aim is to help people notice patterns, try new ways of relating and build small, achievable changes. Her style is respectful and down-to-earth. Conversations are paced to suit each person, with practical tools and reflective moments.

Annette encourages clients to test ideas between sessions and bring back what worked or didn’t work. People who want a collaborative counsellor will find clear, steady support. She can also help with more complex concerns such as dissociation, neurodiversity-related issues, and coping after disasters by tailoring conversations and strategies to each situation.

Ways of working Annette names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Annette commonly uses trauma-focused methods and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Trauma-focused work involves talking through the impact of distressing events and building ways to reduce the hold those memories have on day-to-day life. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thinking, clarify personal values and take committed steps toward meaningful goals.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect current connections. That work looks at how trust, communication and emotional needs show up now and what small steps might change those patterns. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process, and she will work collaboratively to decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for interactive exercises and longer therapeutic conversation. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and messaging suit shorter reflections, on-the-go check-ins or moments when writing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible and help people fit sessions around work, family or travel commitments.
