About Abigail
She pays close attention to early attachment experiences and how those first relationships shape self-esteem and adult relating. That influence often shows up as difficulty with emotional regulation or repeated patterns in relationships. Abigail combines different therapeutic tools to meet each person where they are rather than using one fixed method.
Her background includes 13 years of clinical experience and work with people who struggle with emotion regulation, including those with symptoms often seen in borderline personality presentations and substance use challenges. She also provides counseling to adults with traumatic brain injury and appreciates how regulation difficulties can overlap across different concerns.
Abigail uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and Client-Centered Therapy. She is also a 500-hour certified yoga teacher and can incorporate body awareness and guided meditations when helpful.
She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and to schedule sessions according to her availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, committed steps toward what matters to them despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where a person wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with real-world experiments to change mood and behavior; it can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness, and can be helpful for people who struggle with intense emotions or interpersonal conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Abigail treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Many people use a blend of approaches so the plan can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets therapists use work sheets, guided meditations, and skills coaching in-session in ways that match the client's day-to-day life. Licensed professionals can discuss the best way to structure sessions to suit each person's routine and goals.
