About Abby
Abby Rounding is a counsellor who helps people navigating stress, low confidence, anxiety and depression. She focuses on practical ways to break unhelpful patterns and on helping people feel safer in themselves. Her approach aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful, so people can start to notice small changes quickly.
Abby draws on a mix of counselling methods and uses whatever fits each person best. She often combines practical exercises with conversations about early experiences.
Background and approach
This helps link patterns in the present to how someone learned to cope in the past. Sessions may include simple worksheets alongside talking things through. She believes the relationship between client and counsellor matters most.
Feeling seen and supported makes it easier to try new ways of thinking and behaving. Abby offers a gentle, collaborative space where people decide the pace and focus of work. Typical sessions look at thoughts, feelings, the body and behaviour together.
Sometimes the work is reflective and explores meaning. Other times it is more hands-on and goal-focused to build new habits and coping skills. Abby is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She works with mild to moderate anxiety and depression. Her background and lived experience inform how she helps people find more confidence and clearer direction in life.

Online support
Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The counsellor and client will talk about goals, preferences and how someone responds to different ways of working. Over the first few sessions they will adjust methods so the work fits the person, whether that means more practical exercises or deeper reflective conversations.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
