About Emily

Emily E Abonie helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships and grief. She uses a conversational, client-centred style and works with people to talk through thoughts and feelings. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, and has five years' professional experience.

She focuses on everyday concerns such as self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, ADHD, mood difficulties and family-related stresses. Sessions are delivered in a straightforward way that aims to make it easier to name problems and try out practical steps.

Her approach draws on several therapies. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the focus on the person's experience and priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to look at how feelings shape relationships. Mindfulness techniques are offered to support stress and anxiety management.

She also uses elements of psychodynamic and solution-focused methods to look at patterns from the past and set achievable short-term goals. This mix allows conversations about difficult feelings while planning small changes for daily life.

Emily works in English and accepts international clients. Her registration with BACP and NCPS is noted to reflect professional membership rather than a specific treatment outcome. To start, people complete an online questionnaire and arrange a first session through the platform.

How her therapeutic approaches are used online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions and encourages open conversation about what matters most. It helps with issues such as low self-esteem, stress and motivation by focusing on the client's own priorities and pace.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions affect relationships and attachment patterns. This approach can help people who struggle with intimacy-related issues, communication problems or repeated relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and suggest which methods to emphasise. Decisions about method are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can allow shorter check-ins or sessions that suit quieter surroundings and easier scheduling without promising a particular service.
