About Abigail
Abigail takes a practical, conversational approach in sessions. She pays attention to early attachment patterns and how those early relationships shape current behavior and feelings. She uses evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical strategies to teach skills for managing strong emotions and reducing unhelpful thinking.
Sessions can include acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and move toward meaningful action. She also uses client-centered listening to make space for each person’s experience. When helpful, Abigail brings breathing, body-awareness work, and guided meditation drawn from her training as a yoga teacher.
She has worked with adults affected by traumatic brain injury and with people facing substance use challenges, focusing on practical strategies to improve relationship regulation and daily functioning. Abigail emphasizes that patterns developed early in life can change with attention and practice. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is measured in real life steps.
People who meet with Abigail can expect clear, down-to-earth guidance, emotion-regulation skills, and steps to rebuild safer ways of relating to others and to themselves.

Approaches that guide online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take action even when feelings are difficult. It supports work on depression, anxiety, and life transitions by teaching practical steps toward chosen values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationships and how they shape current patterns of relating; it helps people understand triggers and rebuild safer ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect, giving people space to set the pace and topics of sessions while the therapist reflects and supports their process.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays focused and useful.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing commuting time, enabling shorter check-ins when needed, and allowing work to continue from a familiar location. It also can let people use breathing and body-awareness exercises between sessions to practice skills learned in therapy.
