Izabela Burge
Helping people manage stress and life change
About Izabela
Izabela Burge welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start. She aims to make talking about stress, anxiety, grief or life change feel straightforward and manageable. Izabela keeps sessions practical and down to earth so people can take small steps between meetings.
Izabela works online and by phone or messaging to fit therapy around busy schedules. She is registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, NCPS, and brings three years of experience in counselling and wellbeing roles.
Background and approach
Her background includes supporting bereavement, community mental health and wellbeing projects. Her approach centres on what the person needs in the moment. She uses client-centred conversations to build trust and explore concerns.
When helpful, she adds techniques from cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness to address anxiety, sleep problems, low mood and stress. Izabela also offers hypnotherapy and draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns and early influences when people want deeper self-understanding. She adapts pace and focus so therapy stays relevant to everyday life and personal goals.
Practical tools, clear steps and regular check-ins are part of how she works. Izabela aims to help people notice small changes that add up to better coping, improved sleep, clearer decisions about relationships or career, and a stronger sense of self.
People interested in starting can expect an open, empathetic space where concerns around addiction, ADHD, parenting stress, body image, midlife questions and compassion fatigue can be talked through without judgement.

Sessions & fees
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The therapist provides a non-judgemental space and helps the person make sense of feelings and choices, which suits stress, life changes and self-esteem work.Cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses simple, practical techniques to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and manage low mood by trying different ways of thinking and acting.
Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calming practices. These skills can help with racing thoughts, stress and coping with ongoing difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then shape sessions together. That collaborative process means methods can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit short check-ins or times when video isn’t practical. Live chat and text-based messaging give flexible ways to reflect between sessions and share updates. These options help people keep therapy going while balancing work, family and other commitments.
