Abigail has been simply amazing to me. She allowed me to dig deep while ensuring that I focus on the present and future. I highly recommend her, as she has been tremendously supportive of my overall mental health.

She has helped me tremendously with processing many emotions I had put on the back burner. I do look forward to the sessions.

Abigail ist the most kind and understanding person I've ever met. She is a superb listener and always asks the right questions. She really understands trauma, abuse and narcissism and I have made great progress in therapy and life thanks to her.

I love working with Abigail- she is kind and thoughtful but asks very good questions right when you need to think about something, which is something that you might be trying to avoid. :)
She has compassion and empathy and circles back to wanting the best outcome for you as a person. I highly recommend scheduling sessions with Abigail!
