About Bonny
Bonny Flowers is a counsellor with 23 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She focuses on making therapy approachable and straightforward. Bonny aims to create an open space where people can talk about their feelings without judgement and find ways to move forward.
She helps with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Her practice also covers a wide range of other concerns such as addiction, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating issues, and worries about intimacy.
Background and approach
Bonny includes LGBT concerns as part of her work and offers support around family-related challenges and life transitions. Bonny uses familiar, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Client-Centred approaches to follow what the person brings, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and Motivational Interviewing to work through ambivalence about change.
She also brings elements of psychodynamic and solution-focused work when these are helpful. In sessions she listens first, then works with each person to set small, realistic steps. Conversations are plain and goal-focused when that suits someone, or more reflective when people want to understand patterns from their past.
Her aim is to help people gain clearer choices and better coping strategies. Bonny is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She works in English and practices in the UK.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.

How Bonny's approaches fit with online therapy
Bonny uses client-centred work that follows what each person needs, focusing on listening and understanding. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can be practical for tackling anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and situation. That means trying different ways of working, checking how a method feels, and adjusting the plan together over time.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It can also allow for quieter conversation without needing to rearrange large parts of daily life, helping therapy to sit alongside work, caring responsibilities or studies.
