Izabela Burge, NCPS

Izabela Burge is a UK-based counsellor who offers flexible online, telephone, and messaging sessions designed to fit around busy lives. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can explore anxiety, grief, stress, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem and body image difficulties, career and life transitions, and a broad range of other challenges including addictions, ADHD, parenting, and intimacy-related issues.

She is registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), which indicates adherence to recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom. Her formal training includes a Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling, a Certified Hypnotherapist qualification, and a BSc in Psychology and Public Relations. These credentials inform a flexible practice that blends client-centered listening with practical therapeutic tools.

Izabela adapts her approach to each person rather than following a fixed script, checking in regularly so clients remain in control of their progress. Her practice draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive and mindfulness-informed techniques and hypnotherapy where appropriate. She has worked in roles across wellbeing and counselling services, including Mind South Kent, Place2Be, Cruse Bereavement, and in community and NHS settings, bringing a range of clinical and practical experience to her work.

Clients often say they feel comfortable with her quickly; Izabela aims to bring empathy, clarity, and practical support to help people discover strengths, manage difficult emotions, and find workable ways forward. She accepts international clients and offers sessions that can be scheduled by phone, video, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and remote care with Izabela

Izabela commonly integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and hypnotherapy into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a supportive space where the client’s perspective guides the work - it is often helpful for building self-awareness, processing emotions, and strengthening self-esteem. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be especially effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. As a Certified Hypnotherapist, she may offer hypnotherapy techniques that support relaxation, habit change, and accessing internal resources when appropriate.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Izabela works with each person to understand their concerns, goals, and preferences, adapting methods over time so the therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Izabela is offered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into work, family, or daily routines. These options increase accessibility and flexibility, allowing people to start and maintain therapy from different locations and at times that suit them, while still working with a licensed professional to address their concerns.
