About Annette
Annette Isibor is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and issues with self‑esteem. She supports those dealing with trauma, addiction, sleep or eating difficulties, and intimacy or parenting concerns. Annette also works with people who struggle with codependency, attachment worries and a range of personality‑related challenges. She has 21 years of professional experience and is associated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Annette blends a few practical ways of working to suit each person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioural methods to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She uses client‑centred conversations to make space for what matters most to the client. Attachment‑based ideas help when relationship patterns and past losses affect current life.
Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps and understanding the patterns that keep problems going. She adapts pace and focus so work feels relevant and doable. Conversations aim to build skills to manage anxiety, cope with grief, improve communication and strengthen emotional awareness.
Annette describes herself as respectful and compassionate. She tailors sessions and treatment plans to each individual. Her approach is collaborative - she and the client decide what to try and how to adjust it as progress is made.
People considering therapy are encouraged to take the first step when they are ready. Annette acknowledges that starting therapy can take courage and aims to offer steady support as clients begin changes.
How therapeutic approaches work for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and problems where avoidance keeps life small. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behaviour that make stress and mood problems worse, using clear exercises and practical tasks between sessions. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people shift how they relate to others and to themselves.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Plans are adjusted as therapy progresses so methods fit the client rather than the other way round.
Confirm the available session options before booking because the biography does not specify formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. It can also let someone join from different locations if that helps them attend more consistently. Registered or accredited professionals will discuss practical details so sessions suit everyday life and commitments.
