Hello! My name is Abby, and I specialize in working with mood disorders, including depression, anxiety, and bipolar.
With curiosity, humor, and warmth, I find joy in supporting clients as they process significant events, establish personal goals, explore meaning and identity, heal from trauma, and cultivate self-compassion. Through exploration of metaphor and symbolism, I join with clients in shedding light on themes and patterns as a means of increasing understanding and self-awareness.
In my clinical practice I utilize elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Depth Psychology, art therapy, trauma-informed methods, and psychodynamic modalities to provide a holistic, eclectic, and individualized approach.

At the heart of my work is a strength-based and solution-focused philosophy: I help clients uncover their resilience, develop practical coping skills, and move toward a life of clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
