About Abigail
Abigail Holman helps people who are facing relationship strain, grief, low self‑esteem, career uncertainty, ADHD, stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people coping with trauma, bipolar difficulties, major life changes and compassion fatigue. Abigail approaches work in a straightforward, warm way that aims to put people at ease quickly.
She describes herself first as a fellow human being who has faced life’s challenges. That perspective shapes how she meets people - with plain speech and without judgement.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to each person, so practical strategies and reflective conversations are both options. Abigail uses methods drawn from attachment work, client‑centred therapy and cognitive behavioural ideas. That mix allows for exploring relationships and patterns, while also building concrete skills to manage worry, sleep problems and low motivation.
Mindfulness and existential thinking also inform her approach when it helps people make sense of values and meaning. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Abigail has four years of experience supporting people from the United Kingdom and beyond.
She offers sessions in English and can work with international clients when that fits. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Abigail invites people to decide together what will suit their situation and goals, and she aims to make the first steps simple and clear.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step set the practical arrangements, after which Abigail and each person agree how to proceed.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Abigail will discuss your goals and preferences, try out methods, and adapt what she uses as therapy progresses. That means the plan can be practical, reflective, or a mix depending on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you see body language and keep a more traditional session feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit brief check‑ins, written reflection, or people who find typing easier than speaking. These options help fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping focus on the therapeutic work itself.
