About Annette
Annette Isibor is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 21 years of professional experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and a range of other concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping and eating difficulties, anger, parenting strain and bipolar challenges.
Annette uses a mix of practical approaches to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) features in her work alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas and client-centred principles. Sessions focus on clear steps, skills practice and looking at thoughts, feelings and behaviours that keep problems going.
Her style is straightforward and task-focused. She talks through current problems, identifies small changes to try, and checks what helps between sessions. This can include behaviour experiments, mindfulness tasks or communication practice depending on the issue.
Annette has worked across community and clinic settings during her career. That experience informs a pragmatic approach to everyday problems, such as improving sleep, managing anxiety spikes or re-building trust after trauma. She works with people who want concrete ways to reduce distress and improve how they cope.
People using her service will be guided to set clear goals and track progress. She accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. To start, the service asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Annette commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small experiments to test new responses. ACT focuses on values and practical steps to live with difficult thoughts while committing to chosen actions.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how past relationships affect current problems, especially in intimacy and communication issues. These approaches aim to give clear tools for everyday situations such as sleep problems, anxiety spikes or relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Annette will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan that fits the person’s needs. That plan can include short skill-based tasks, communication practice or attention to emotional patterns, and it is adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use this flexibility to keep practice consistent with day-to-day life and responsibilities.
