About Abigail Homer

A little about Abigail

I understand that taking the first step towards therapy can feel difficult, and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. My aim is to provide a welcoming, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, feel heard and work towards the changes you would like to make.

As an Integrative Therapist, I work with a range of therapeutic approaches because every person is different. Rather than following one method, I adapt the way we work together to suit your individual needs, helping you explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

MEET ABIGAIL

A warm and supportive approach to therapy

Thank you for taking the time to find out a little more about me.

I have always been interested in understanding people and what helps them make positive changes in their lives. That interest led me to train in counselling, hypnotherapy, coaching and a range of complementary therapies, allowing me to support each client in a way that reflects their individual needs.

Before becoming a full-time therapist, I was Chief Executive Officer of an independent charity. That experience gave me a real understanding of the challenges people can face at different stages of life and strengthened my belief in the importance of kindness, empathy and feeling truly listened to.

Today I work with young people, adults and groups, providing a calm, supportive and non-judgemental environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings at a pace that feels right for them.
