Abbie Bonnett, NCPS
Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor who helps people work through identity, relationship and intimacy challenges.
About Abbie
Abbie Bonnett is a counsellor who helps people work through identity, relationship and intimacy challenges. She holds NCPS as a credential and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for conversations about gender, sexuality and related concerns. Her style is straightforward and client-led, focusing on what matters most to the person in front of her.
She has a particular background in LGBT concerns and gender identity. Abbie supports people exploring transgender, nonbinary and gender nonconforming experiences, and she does not practise conversion therapy.
Background and approach
She also works with people navigating relationship struggles including communication difficulties, attachment concerns, infidelity and the dynamics of non-monogamous relationships. Abbie includes attention to neurodiversity in her work and is familiar with autism and Asperger syndrome and how these can affect intimacy and communication.
She also addresses anxiety symptoms such as panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and the strain of isolation or intense guilt and shame. Practical coping strategies and clearer understanding of patterns are typical aims in sessions. Her approach is rooted in client-centred therapy, which means the person leads the pace and focus while the counsellor offers listening, reflection and gentle guidance.
Sessions can include exploring past attachments, discussing boundaries and mapping out concrete next steps for real-life situations. Abbie works online with people in the United Kingdom. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and routines.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled from there.

Approaches Abbie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Because Abbie focuses on identity and relationship matters, sessions may also look at attachment patterns and how past relationships shape current reactions. That kind of exploration can help with intimacy struggles, forgiveness, and navigating non-monogamous dynamics in ways that feel manageable.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs with each person and adapt the way she works accordingly. Together they decide whether to focus on emotional processing, practical skills or a mix of both.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face and suit longer conversations, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for quicker check-ins, and live chat or text messaging can fit into busy days or provide ongoing support between calls. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, care commitments and everyday life.
