About Abigail
She blends several therapy approaches to fit each person's needs. Abigail pays close attention to early attachment experiences and how those first relationships shape self-esteem and later ties to others. She also uses skills-based strategies to help with emotional regulation and everyday coping.
Abigail has 13 years of clinical experience and has worked with people who have trouble regulating emotions, including those with histories of substance use and traumatic brain injury. She describes common patterns she sees and then helps people find practical ways to respond differently in relationships and daily life.
Her sessions often include attention to body awareness and breathing, drawing on her background as a 500-hour certified yoga teacher to introduce simple meditations and grounding practices when helpful. She encourages questions about integrating these practices into therapy.
People who reach out start by sharing what feels most urgent. From there Abigail tailors interventions - whether that looks like talking through attachment patterns, practicing skills for crises, or building routines to manage stress and mood.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match what matters to the client; it can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with health changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current bonds and self-view, which can be useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and relationship conflicts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, often helping with mood, anxiety, and daily stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That process is collaborative and may shift over time as habits and relationships change.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Bringing therapeutic work into everyday routines can help people practice skills between sessions and apply strategies to real situations.
