About Abby

Abby Rounding is a counsellor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She works with individuals who struggle with self-esteem, low confidence, and feeling stuck in repeating patterns. Abby aims to create a calm space where clients can talk honestly and start to make small, practical changes.

Abby draws on several approaches and adapts them to each person. She highlights Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which can help when someone is caught in unhelpful thinking or behaviour cycles and wants concrete tools to change.

Background and approach

She also values the therapeutic relationship and uses that connection to support deeper work. Her background blends different theories so sessions can include exploring early life experiences, emotions, bodily responses and behaviour. That might mean discussing family patterns, attachment concerns, or how past events shape current relationships.

Worksheets and practical exercises are sometimes used to build awareness and new habits. Abby has three years of experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with mild to moderate anxiety and depression and addresses related issues such as body image, codependency, communication problems, guilt and shame, and the strain of separation.

First sessions are usually an introduction where information is gathered and goals are discussed. Subsequent sessions are led by the client, with Abby offering structure, intuition and collaborative planning to help people develop healthier ways of living and relating.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape how people connect now. Online sessions can help identify patterns in close relationships and build safer ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the session with warm, non-judgemental listening. This approach helps people feel heard and find their own solutions at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, offers structured tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It works well for anxiety, low mood and habits that keep someone stuck.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Abby treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss what feels most helpful. Together they will agree what to try first and adjust methods as needs and goals change.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow fuller conversations and visual connection when that is helpful. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions, or when writing helps to organise thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or other commitments while keeping the focus on progress and accessibility.
