About Abigail
Abigail prefers a direct but compassionate style. She emphasizes early attachment patterns and how those first relationships shape self-esteem and later interactions. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer understanding of how thoughts and everyday habits influence feelings and behavior. She uses techniques from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build emotion regulation and coping strategies.
Her background includes 13 years of clinical experience and work with people facing complex emotional regulation challenges. She has particular experience with clients who show traits of borderline personality challenges and with substance use concerns. Abigail also provides therapy for adults with traumatic brain injury and tailors her work to each person’s needs.
She integrates attachment-based ideas with client-centered listening to help people notice patterns that repeat across relationships. That awareness is used to try new ways of responding. Abigail is trained as a 500-hour yoga teacher and offers body-awareness practices and guided meditations when requested.

How her approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values rather than getting stuck in unhelpful thinking. It can help with anxiety, depression, and changing everyday habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early caregiver relationships to understand current patterns in close relationships and self-esteem; it helps people recognize repeating patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with practical experiments to reduce distress and build coping tools.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Abigail collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She combines elements from different approaches and checks in regularly so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what will be offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible to use guided breathing or body-awareness exercises during a session without needing separate travel time. Talk with the therapist about which mix of exercises and skills training will best suit your day-to-day routine.
