About Abbie

Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She holds NCPS and works plain with people who are wrestling with identity, relationships, or intense emotions. Her approach aims to help people feel understood and find ways to cope with life changes.

She creates a space where conversations about gender identity and LGBT concerns can be held without judgement. She has personal insight into LGBTQIA+ matters and focuses on helping people live more authentically.

Background and approach

She also makes clear that she will not practise any form of conversion therapy. Abbie works with relationship and intimacy concerns, including communication difficulties, attachment issues, infidelity, and the complexities that can come with polyamory or ethical non-monogamy. She is able to adapt sessions to look at neurodiversity and how it affects close relationships.

Common threads in her work include struggles with panic, obsessive thinking, shame, isolation and trauma. She also supports people coping with ADHD, body image worries, and difficulties around sexual expression such as kink and BDSM. Sessions focus on talking through feelings and finding practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.

People meet Abbie for a straightforward, respectful style. She listens without judgement and centres each conversation on what the person wants to change. Over time the aim is clearer self-understanding and more workable ways to handle difficult situations.

How client-centred work translates online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person make sense of feelings. This approach is useful for matters of identity, relationship difficulty and emotional overwhelm because it builds understanding and a stronger sense of self.

Abbie will work collaboratively to find the best way of working for each person. Together they will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. The approach can be adjusted as needs change, with the person kept central in deciding next steps.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when being on camera is not wanted. Live chat or messaging suits short check-ins, ongoing notes or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, travel or busy days while still enabling regular, focused sessions with a registered or accredited professional.
