Hello! I’m Isabella

Counsellor MBACP

I’m Isabella, an autistic counsellor dedicated to helping neurodivergent adults navigate life with more ease and self-compassion. I understand the challenges of feeling misunderstood, managing burnout, and struggling to fit into rigid workplace expectations—because I’ve been there too.

At Heart and Mind Therapies, I offer a safe, non-judgemental space where you don’t have to mask, struggle alone, or force yourself into systems that don’t work for you. Instead, I help neurodivergent individuals find strategies that honour their needs and strengths—whether at work, in relationships, or in daily life.

You don’t have to just survive the workplace. You deserve to thrive.

“I sought counselling with Isabella because I was feeling really overwhelmed and was wondering whether I could be autistic. I wasn’t optimistic that counselling would help me, having undertaken quite a lot of it in the past and not found it helpful, but counselling with Isabella has been a completely different and validating experience. I was, initially, very anxious before and during our sessions, but Isabella is empathetic, non-judgmental, and supportive, and has made it safe for me to talk about things that I haven’t been able to talk about before. I, also, really appreciate Isabella’s genuinely collaborative and honest approach to sessions. I have now started exploring who I authentically am, and I am more able to share this with other people. Rather than believing that there is something fundamentally wrong with me, I am beginning to actually quite like myself. This experience of counselling has been liberating, and I am far more hopeful and excited about life.”

“I have found my sessions with Isabella exciting, interesting, revealing, and even transformative. She creates a space that allows for silence and reflection as well as my ramblings with zero judgment and full support. Though these traits are somewhat obvious for a counsellor to possess, it’s easier sought for than found. I’m grateful to Isabella for our time together and only wish I could afford to see her more than twice a month! And that isn’t to say that she’s expensive. On the contrary, she is very fairly priced, another thing difficult to find. I always look forward to my brief time with her, and as we dig deeper, I am really starting to see who I’ve been hiding inside myself all my life.”

“I was struggling to make sense of my life, both personally and professionally, due to a number of factors that all seemed to collide at the same time. Although I had close family around to provide their advice, I really felt I needed an opportunity to speak with someone new and impartial about the areas causing me a lot of concern and distress. This led me to seek counseling with Isabella at Heart and Mind Therapies. I always find it difficult to meet someone new and open up about what is going on in my mind, but Isabella provided a compassionate and safe space for me to do so. During my online sessions, I felt seen, heard, and listened to throughout. It was also incredibly empowering to speak with someone who understood my neurodivergent brain; someone who could relate to my own life experiences, which is something I do not get in my day-to-day life. Thank you, Isabella, for giving me your time and space to work through my experiences.”
