About Emily
Emily E Abonie is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and relationship concerns. She also helps with self-esteem, motivation and confidence as people cope with life changes.
Emily focuses on making conversation straightforward and practical. She listens for patterns in how people react to emotions and relationships. That helps to identify small shifts that can ease day-to-day stress and recurring problems.
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred and mindfulness methods. That means sessions often look at feelings that are hard to name, and at how those feelings affect behaviour and relationships. Mindfulness techniques are used to build awareness of thoughts and bodily reactions.
Emily also uses psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas when they fit the issue. Psychodynamic perspectives can help when past experiences shape current responses. Solution-focused work is used to set clear, short-term goals and try new ways of coping.
People who work with Emily can expect steady, plain-speaking discussion about what matters most. She invites clients to notice small changes and to practice different responses between sessions. The focus is always on practical steps people can try as they navigate difficult feelings and life transitions.
Working online with Emotionally-Focused and client-centred approaches
Emily uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify core emotions and how those emotions shape their responses. EFT sessions often focus on naming feelings, tracking interaction patterns, and trying new responses to reduce repeating conflicts or emotional distance.She also uses client-centred therapy, which emphasises listening and reflecting back what a person says. This approach helps people feel understood and lets them lead the pace and topics of therapy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and help decide whether EFT, client-centred work or mindfulness tools are the best fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into everyday life and reducing travel time. Online meetings can make scheduling easier around work or caring responsibilities.
