About Onon

Onon Perenlei helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression using a mix of talking therapies. She works with individuals facing life changes, questions of identity and existential concerns. Onon is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience in the United Kingdom.

She uses client-centred methods to focus on each person's perspective and priorities. That means sessions centre on what matters to the individual and on building a trusting professional relationship. She also draws on existential ideas to address meaning, and on mindfulness to support coping with distressing thoughts and feelings.

Onon has experience supporting people through bereavement and cancer-related challenges, and with caregivers dealing with ongoing stress. She also works with people affected by attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, body image concerns and blended family difficulties.

Her practice includes elements of psychodynamic and trauma-focused approaches when past experiences or difficult events are influencing current wellbeing. In practical terms she helps clients talk through patterns, manage symptoms day to day, and consider different ways of responding to challenging situations.

Sessions are conducted in English and Mongolian. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's own concerns at the centre of each session. The counsellor listens to what matters most and supports the person to explore options and make decisions that suit their life. This approach is useful for stress, low self-esteem and life transitions.

Existential Therapy helps people tackle questions about meaning, values and identity. It involves open discussion about difficult choices and feelings of emptiness or loss of direction, and can be helpful when someone is re-evaluating life goals or facing bereavement.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss methods and adapt sessions based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process in which options are reviewed and changed if they do not feel helpful.

If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow sessions from familiar surroundings. It can also suit shorter check-ins or sessions that do not need video, depending on what the counsellor offers.
