About Emily
Emily E Abonie offers calm, straightforward support for people facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and relationship strain. She works with individuals dealing with addictions, grief, loss and life changes. Emily aims to make the first step easier by listening without judgement and helping clients feel understood.
She uses a client-centred way of working that prioritises each person’s goals and pace. Conversations focus on what matters to the client and on practical steps to manage symptoms such as worry, low mood or difficulties with motivation.
Background and approach
Emily also draws on emotionally-focused work to help people understand patterns in close relationships and to improve emotional connection. Mindfulness techniques are introduced when helpful to reduce overwhelm and build attention to the present moment. Her training includes BACP and NCPS credentials and she has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
That background includes supporting people with ADHD-related challenges, intimacy concerns and body image worries. Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Emily helps with communication problems, coping with caregiver stress, and practical tools for managing control issues and isolation.
She encourages small, achievable changes and checks in on progress along the way.
How Emily’s approaches work online
Emily uses client-centred therapy to place the client’s priorities at the heart of each session. That means conversations follow what the client brings, and the counsellor helps clarify goals, reflect feelings and agree on practical next steps. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when relationship patterns and emotional responses are the focus, helping people name feelings and shift unhelpful cycles. Mindfulness Therapy can be introduced to build attention to the present moment and to reduce racing thoughts and anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Emily discusses options in early sessions and makes adjustments as needs and goals become clearer. This collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasise emotional processing, present-focused skills or practical problem solving.
Online formats include video calls for fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions for lower bandwidth or simpler check-ins, and live chat or text messaging for shorter exchanges and flexible support. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and travel, and to continue work between meetings with written check-ins and brief messages.
