Abby Rawlinson

Hi there, I’m Abby! You might know me from my popular Instagram account, @therapywithabby, or my recent book, Reclaiming You, which came out earlier this year.

Whether you’re dealing with a specific issue or just have that gut feeling something isn’t quite right, therapy can be a powerful tool to explore your thoughts and make positive changes. We all go through times when life feels a bit too overwhelming to handle on our own. That’s where therapy comes in - it’s a space to find support, gain clarity, and navigate those tough times with guidance.

My top priority as a therapist is to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. I genuinely believe the relationship between client and therapist is the most important part of the therapy experience. That’s why I work from the heart, often with a healthy dose of humour and playfulness.

Before training to become a therapist I worked in the media industry for 15+ years, so I intimately understand the particular demands, challenges and struggles of working in corporate and creative environments.

I know starting with a new therapist can be nerve-wracking, especially if it’s your first time in therapy. But my goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and confident as you take this step towards meaningful change.

My approach is warm, relaxed and collaborative, and I use a range of modern approaches depending on your needs. I blend elements of neuroscience, CBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic and somatic, body-based therapy into a style that feels down to earth, relatable and compassionate.

Treatment areas:

• Anxiety and panic attacks

• Depression and low mood

• Stress and burnout

• Imposter syndrome

• Social anxiety

• Issues with boundaries

• Feeling disconnected/lonely

• Low confidence and self-esteem

• Complex trauma and C-PTSD

• Grief and loss

• Relationship problems

• Lack and direction and purpose

• Addiction

• Family issues and conflict

• Life transitions

• Parenting and matrescence

Benefits of therapy:

• Discover the root of your emotional reactions and triggers

• Handle everyday stress more effectively

• Make decisions without second-guessing yourself

• Learn to place healthy boundaries without feeling guilty

• Create work/life balance

• Learn to identify and express your feelings

• Grow your self-belief and take new opportunities

• Learn to trust others and deepen relationships

• Make peace with your past

• Soften the inner critic

• Increase awareness of the mind-body connection
