About Isabelle

Isabelle Vachon is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience helping people navigate relationship strain, parenting struggles, trauma, anxiety, and stress. She works with concerns around intimacy, self-esteem, eating and body image, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Isabelle uses plain language and a down-to-earth style to make therapy feel manageable and real.

Her sessions start with the client's goals. Isabelle treats people as experts on their own lives and tailors each plan to what matters most.

Background and approach

She balances practical feedback with listening time and checks in about how much challenge or support a person wants. Isabelle blends several approaches to meet concrete needs. She draws on client-centered work to keep focus on the person, cognitive behavioral techniques for changing unhelpful patterns, and mindfulness practices to build calm and awareness.

She also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult stories. In practice this looks like learning new ways to handle communication, pacing exposure to traumatic memories, building routines for mood and eating concerns, or creating strategies for career stress and burnout. Sessions may include skill practice, guided reflection, and homework that fits daily life.

Based in Maine, Isabelle offers video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions so people can choose what fits their schedule. She encourages questions and collaboration so therapy matches each person's pace and preferences.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's priorities and values. In online sessions this means the therapist will follow what matters most to the client, check in about goals, and adjust pacing based on the client's feedback. It helps with relationship concerns, identity questions, and figuring out next steps.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Online CBT often includes short exercises, skill practice between sessions, and step-by-step problem solving that fits into daily life. It is useful for anxiety, mood, and behavior changes.

Isabelle will work together with clients to find the right mix of approaches. Early sessions focus on what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work. The therapist and client decide collaboratively whether to emphasize skills, reflection, or mindfulness practices.

Online formats offer flexibility: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when video isn't possible, live chat for quicker check-ins, and text-based messaging for brief updates or support. These options let people fit therapy around work, school, caregiving, or medical needs while still using active techniques and real-time feedback.
