Abbie Bonnett, NCPS

Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor with three years of professional experience. She holds NCPS credentialing and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through difficult feelings. Abbie is also a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and brings personal insight to conversations about identity and gender. Abbie helps people explore depression, anxiety and the practical day-to-day impacts of life changes. She supports discussion around gender identity and gender dysphoria, and she says clearly that she will not engage in any form of conversion therapy. Conversations are intended to deepen self-understanding and help people find manageable ways forward. She has worked with issues around intimacy and relationships, including communication, attachment concerns, and the effects of infidelity. Abbie has recent additional training in intimate partner relationships and couple’s therapy and uses that to help clients address relational patterns and build clearer ways of relating. Abbie also offers help around neurodiversity and related concerns such as ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome. Other focus areas include obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic attacks, isolation and shame, and navigating non-monogamous or polyamorous arrangements. Her style is person-centred. That means conversations are led by the person in front of her and shaped to their needs. The aim is practical: make sense of what’s happening now and identify steps that feel doable.

How a person-centred approach shapes online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than a fixed set of techniques. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is heard, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach works well for identity questions, relationship concerns and emotional difficulties where being understood is key.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Abbie will work with each person to identify what feels helpful and adapt sessions to meet their goals and preferences. Decisions about techniques, pacing and focus are agreed together as work progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and fewer travel demands. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce the need to be on camera if that helps someone feel more comfortable. The exact session formats available are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can arrange sessions to suit everyday schedules and make therapy more accessible without promising a specific format.
