About Emily
Emily E Abonie is a counsellor with five years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing depression, anxiety, stress, addictions and relationship difficulties. She aims to make the first step feel easier by listening without judgement and helping clients find practical ways forward.
In sessions she creates a calm, open space for people to talk about what matters most to them. She focuses on helping clients rebuild self-esteem, manage difficult emotions and cope with life changes.
Background and approach
Conversations are guided by the client's pace and priorities rather than a fixed agenda. Her approach draws on several therapy styles to suit different needs. She uses client-centred listening to follow the client's lead and emotionally-focused work to address how relationships and attachment influence mood.
Solution-focused techniques support quick, practical steps when that is helpful. People come to her for help with grief, intimacy-related issues, communication problems and problems linked to ADHD or mood disorders. She also offers support around body image, guilt and shame, isolation and life purpose.
Sessions aim to combine understanding with simple strategies that can be tried between appointments. Sessions are available in English and can be delivered through a variety of online formats. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client's routine.
The goal is steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

Online support
She also uses mindfulness-based ideas to help clients notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. These techniques can help with stress, anxiety and managing low mood by creating space for calmer decision-making and small behaviour changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options and adapt methods based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. That way, therapy is collaborative and personalised rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls let clients and therapist meet face to face when helpful, phone sessions require less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or flexible scheduling. These formats make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving or travel, while still allowing consistent support from registered or accredited professionals.
