Online support
How Abigail blends approaches for online care
Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and preferences, with the therapist listening deeply and following the person's lead to build goals that matter. This approach is useful when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with realistic actions. It works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and moods by teaching practical ways to change thinking and behavior.
The choice of approach is a shared decision. Abigail works with clients to figure out which methods fit their situation, goals, and comfort level. She often blends tools from different approaches so the plan matches what the client wants to practice between sessions.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are handy when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
