Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Abigail draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports choosing actions that align with personal values - useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in relationships, exploring how early bonds influence current connections and helping with issues like abandonment, communication problems, and family conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, low mood, and sleep difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Abigail works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors the plan over time, adjusting techniques as progress and priorities unfold.
Online therapy with Abigail is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access. These options make it simpler to schedule sessions around work, family, or health considerations, and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
