About Abigail

Abigail Davies offers calm, non-judgemental support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She makes space for honest conversation about grief, low mood, self-esteem and questions about sexuality. Her aim is to help people find clearer ways to cope and make changes that fit their life.

She listens in a warm, client-centred way so the person sets the pace and priorities. Where helpful, she uses cognitive behavioural techniques to recognise unhelpful thinking and develop practical coping steps.

02

How Abigail works

She also uses hypnotherapy for those who are open to working with imagery and relaxed focus. Abigail is registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. That background includes offering support for trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, ADHD and career-related stress.

She pays attention to attachment patterns and communication difficulties that often affect how people relate to others. Sessions aim to be straightforward and task-focused when needed, or more exploratory if that suits the person better. Abigail supports people dealing with caregiver stress, loneliness, issues around control and the search for life purpose or forgiveness.

Therapy often combines talking work with practical exercises you can try between appointments. Abigail helps people set clear, achievable goals and checks progress as therapy continues.

Online support options

Approaches that guide online sessions

Abigail uses client-centred therapy, which means she follows the person's lead and focuses on creating a supportive space for talking. This approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and to work through emotions at their own pace.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT, which looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours. CBT offers practical strategies and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and improve day-to-day coping with anxiety, low mood or stress.

Hypnotherapy is another option Abigail offers for people who want to try guided relaxation and imagery to access different ways of responding to stress or intrusive memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Abigail will discuss the options, listen to goals and try different methods to see what helps. The choice of approach is collaborative and may change as needs evolve.

Online therapy makes sessions more flexible. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation while letting people join from different locations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, day-to-day support or when writing feels easier than speaking.
