Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor with three years of practice, registered with NCPS. She offers a calm space for people to talk about identity, relationships and the pressures they bring. Abbie aims to help clients make sense of their feelings and find clearer ways to cope day to day.

She works directly with concerns around sexual and gender identity, including gender dysphoria and LGBTQ matters. Abbie also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, and those navigating polyamory or non-monogamous arrangements.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and with attention differences like ADHD. Abbie takes a person-centred approach that puts the client’s experience first. Sessions are focused on listening, reflecting and helping people name what matters to them.

She uses this style to explore attachment, abandonment wounds, communication problems, and the emotional fallout from trauma or panic. Many people bring concerns about body image, guilt and shame, compulsive thoughts or obsessive behaviours; Abbie helps them untangle those patterns and find practical steps forward. She also has experience supporting people negotiating kink, BDSM and alternative sex cultures without judgement.

Conversations about forgiveness, impulsivity and isolation are part of her practice. Working from the United Kingdom, Abbie conducts sessions in English. She does not take international clients.

People connect via video calls, phone, live chat or messaging, and sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How her client-centred approach fits online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps the client name what they are feeling and needing. This approach is useful for exploring identity, relationships, attachment wounds and emotional responses such as panic and shame.

Abbie will work collaboratively to find the therapeutic style that best suits each person. She will discuss goals, preferences and practicalities during the first sessions and adjust the way she works as needs become clearer. Finding the right fit is treated as an ongoing conversation between counsellor and client.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and are helpful for deeper conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around work or childcare. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick reflections or ongoing support between longer appointments. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to attend for different schedules and needs.
