Clinical Approaches and Remote Support

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process distressing experiences and work through the emotional and behavioural impacts that follow. It focuses on understanding how past events affect present-day functioning and supports gradual healing through targeted techniques and pacing. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings, offering practical ways to reduce reactivity to stress and improve emotional regulation. Jungian Therapy explores personal meaning, unconscious patterns, and symbolic material to deepen self-understanding and support work on identity, relationships, and life transitions.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Abigail approaches that choice collaboratively. She will work with each person to identify which methods align best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus over time as progress unfolds.



Online therapy with Abigail is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into a busy life or connect from another location. These remote options provide flexibility in scheduling and formats, allowing therapists and registered professionals to tailor sessions to what feels most accessible and effective for the individual.
