About Emily

Emily E Abonie helps people facing anxiety, stress, addictions, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She also supports people dealing with grief, life changes, intimacy concerns and ADHD. Emily writes in a direct, calm way to reassure someone who is unsure about reaching out.

She aims to make the first conversation straightforward. Sessions focus on listening, understanding the immediate problem and finding small steps that feel manageable. Emily creates a relaxed atmosphere where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement.

Background and approach

With five years of experience, Emily uses a blend of approaches to suit each person. That might mean focusing on emotions in the moment, looking at repeating patterns from the past, or setting short-term goals that build momentum. She keeps explanations simple and practical so people can try things between sessions.

Emily often works on everyday concerns like communication problems, control issues, loneliness and motivation. She also supports people coping with major shifts such as separation, pregnancy and childbirth, or loss. Her work includes attention to body image, self-love and feelings of guilt or shame.

Clients can expect direct, compassionate conversation and tools they can use right away. Emily helps people explore what matters to them and find steps toward a more manageable life. Her approach is collaborative, steady and aimed at real-life change.

How Emily’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding a person’s experience and responding with acceptance and empathy. It helps when someone needs a trusting space to talk through their feelings and find their own answers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions affect relationships and individual patterns, which can be helpful for intimacy and communication concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept away, useful for stress, anxiety and compulsive behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will discuss options with each person and agree together which methods to try first. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs and goals become clearer over time.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions or brief live chats can fit into a lunch break or be used when bandwidth is limited. Text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or allow reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and adapt to day-to-day life.
