About Abigail
Abigail Borquaye offers counselling for people facing relationship and family difficulties. She helps with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, addiction and grief. Abigail also supports concerns around self-esteem, intimacy, anger, career strain and coping with major life changes.
Abigail works from a client-centred starting point. That means she focuses on the person in front of her and what matters most to them. Sessions aim to feel like a respectful, non-judgemental conversation where people can speak about painful events and confusing feelings.
Background and approach
Her way of working draws on several approaches so conversations can move between exploring current patterns and practical change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with thinking and behaviour that gets in the way. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas help when relationship patterns and closeness are the problem.
Abigail brings 19 years of experience supporting people and families, including work with GP referrals and community drop-in services. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and Twi.
Abigail accepts international clients and aims to create a calm space where people can look at what they want to change, repair or understand. To get started, readers should follow the site's booking steps and complete the short matching questionnaire.

How Abigail works online
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Abigail will work collaboratively to choose what fits a person's needs and goals. She will invite feedback and adjust the style as sessions progress so the work feels useful and relevant.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, such as shorter travel time and being able to meet from a convenient location. It can also allow for flexible scheduling across time zones for international clients. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, readers should confirm current online and in-person options before booking. Registered and accredited professionals offer a range of ways to meet, and Abigail will help choose what suits each person's circumstances and rhythms.
