Isabel Tate is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years of practice in the UK helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to do next. Isabel aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive.

Clients often come with stress, anxiety or low mood. Isabel also helps people with relationship strain, parenting pressures, career worries and the fallout from trauma or loss.

Background and approach

She works with issues such as self-esteem, anger, compassion fatigue and the challenges of life transitions. Her approach is straightforward and patient. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client, using listening and practical reflection to make sense of feelings and choices.

Mindfulness tools are used when they suit a person, to build calm and focus in day-to-day life. Isabel creates a warm space to talk without fear of judgement. She encourages honest conversation and small steps that fit into busy lives.

The emphasis is on understanding what is happening now and finding ways to cope differently. People who value a calm, non-judgemental listener tend to find Isabel a good fit. She is comfortable helping with a wide range of concerns from grief and trauma to questions about life purpose and identity.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online in the United Kingdom.

How Isabel uses client-centred and mindfulness work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding together. The therapist follows the person’s concerns, offering empathy and reflection to help them make sense of feelings and choices. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to talk through what matters most.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These techniques can be used alongside talk work to help with anxiety, stress, low mood and concentration difficulties. Exercises are short and practical so they can fit into busy days.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Isabel will talk through what feels most useful and adapt methods to match your goals and preferences. Together you decide on tasks and experiments to try between sessions and check what helps.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video is useful for visual connection and shared exercises, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits quick check-ins or shorter conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping a steady therapeutic routine.
