About Bonny
Bonny Flowers is a counsellor with 23 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and loss. She creates a calm space where feelings and thoughts can be talked through without judgement.
Her day-to-day work often centres on relationship difficulties and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also helps people dealing with addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and the practical strain of parenting.
Background and approach
Bonny supports those facing major life changes such as bereavement, separation and shifts in career direction. Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, among other methods. That means sessions can include exploring personal history, looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, and finding small steps to build motivation and confidence.
She adapts the work to what each person brings to the room. Clients often talk through concrete goals, such as improving communication, reducing anxiety symptoms, or rebuilding confidence after loss. Bonny works at a pace set by the person she is supporting and focuses on practical change as well as emotional understanding.
She pays attention to attachment, abandonment and blended family concerns when relevant. Sessions are conducted in English and are organised through the site matching process. To begin, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability.

How Bonny works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. Delivered remotely, CBT can include agreed tasks between sessions, tracked progress, and clear steps to reduce anxiety or low mood.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find and strengthen their own reasons to change. In an online setting this can be useful for addiction, lifestyle changes or improving motivation around goals by working through ambivalence together.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped in the past. This collaborative planning shapes whether sessions lean more towards exploration, skills practice or short-term problem solving.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for quicker follow-ups between meetings. It can also let people choose shorter check-ins or longer sessions depending on what fits their routine.
