Abbie Bonnett

Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and has three years of experience supporting people through identity and relationship concerns. Abbie aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings and life changes.

She regularly works with issues connected to LGBT matters and gender identity, including gender dysphoria and support during transitions. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related concerns, helping people look at communication, attachment and experiences of infidelity or non-monogamous dynamics.

Abbie has a particular interest in neurodiversity and related challenges, including autism and attention differences such as ADHD. She also helps with body image, obsessive thoughts and compulsions, panic attacks, and trauma-related concerns.

Her approach centres on Client-Centred Therapy, which means she listens carefully and follows the person’s pace. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and aim to build self-understanding and clearer choices.

Abbie is clear about boundaries around harmful practices and does not engage in any form of conversion therapy. She also offers support to parents or guardians seeking to understand a loved one’s LGBTQIA+ identity.

How Client-Centred Work Translates to Online Therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the client’s lead. It helps people who want space to talk through identity questions, relationship problems or feelings of shame and isolation. The therapist offers understanding and reflection rather than directing every step.

That same attitude can be used online, where conversations still centre on the person’s priorities. Abbie will work collaboratively to identify the best approach for your needs and goals, adjusting pace and focus as you go. Finding the right fit is an ongoing process and she will review what is or isn’t helpful with you.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoiding the need to be on camera if that feels difficult. Many people find these practical benefits helpful when balancing therapy with everyday responsibilities.
