Abigail Holman, BACP

Abigail Holman helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strains, grief and life changes. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, depression, trauma and compassion fatigue. Abigail presents as down-to-earth and approachable, aiming to make the first step feel less daunting for someone worried about starting therapy.

She describes herself as a fellow human who has navigated personal challenges. That perspective shapes a warm, non-judgemental way of working. Sessions are tailored to each person, with space to talk about feelings and what is troubling them.

When practical tools are needed, Abigail offers strategies to manage worry, overthinking, poor sleep and low motivation. She uses methods drawn from several therapeutic approaches to match what the person wants to achieve. This can mean talking through thoughts and behaviours, or exploring how early relationships affect current patterns.

Abigail holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She has four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Her background supports a focus on both emotional processing and practical coping skills.

People who contact her can expect a collaborative way of working. The aim is to identify small, realistic steps that fit into everyday life. Abigail also works with concerns such as caregiver stress, body image, communication problems and chronic illness, tailoring the approach to each person’s needs.

How these approaches can help in online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people who notice repeated relationship problems or who feel anxious about closeness. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s perspective at the centre of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the client find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical techniques for worry, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Abigail will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. She aims to agree a plan that blends listening with practical steps when needed, and she adjusts the approach as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to have regular check-ins during busy weeks or to fit a short session into a lunch break. The exact session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they suit your routine.
