Abigail Borquaye, BACP

Abigail Borquaye is a counsellor with 19 years of experience who focuses on relationship and family concerns. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and trauma, as well as struggles with self‑esteem, intimacy and career stress. Abigail is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She describes her work as integrative and anchored in a client‑centred approach. Sessions aim to give people space to speak about what matters to them and to clarify next steps. Abigail offers a calm, non‑judgemental atmosphere where practical coping strategies can be discussed alongside deeper emotional themes.

Her practice pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns that shape how people connect. She uses elements of emotionally‑focused and psychodynamic work to look at feelings and past experience, and draws on cognitive behavioural ideas when people need tools to manage anxiety or mood. The aim is to match methods to each person s needs rather than follow a single template.

Abigail has a particular interest in issues such as abandonment, codependency, blended family challenges and caregiving stress. She also supports people dealing with domestic violence, bereavement, and recovery from neglect or abuse. Practical concerns like workplace stress, anger and decision making are included in sessions when they matter to the person.

Sessions are offered in English and Twi, and she accepts international clients. People usually begin by completing a short questionnaire, then schedule a session using the site process. The overall focus is to help people find clearer ways forward and more stable relationships with themselves and others.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice those patterns, name feelings and practise different ways of relating. Client‑centred therapy centres on the person s experience and uses listening and reflection to help people feel heard and understood; this can be done over distance just as in person. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical steps to change behaviour and mood, which often fits well into short tasks between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try different techniques and agree what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions stay focused on feelings, past experience, or practical skills.

Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check‑in meetings and remove travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue work when life is unpredictable, while the therapist and client agree on a plan that fits the person s routine and needs.
