Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Abigail combines Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address relationship and personal challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns of closeness and separation, helping clients understand and change how they relate to partners and family. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental environment where the client leads the pace and topic of work, supporting self-exploration and personal growth. CBT offers practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Abigail works collaboratively with each person or couple to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts sessions over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy with Abigail is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving duties, or those living at a distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access support from home or while traveling, while still working with a registered professional who tailors the work to individual circumstances.
