More about Abigail

- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with several years of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. I have utilized individual, group, and family therapy in my work. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from SUNY Geneseo and a Master’s of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. John Fisher College. After completing my master’s, I worked toward and gained licensure as a mental health counselor through the New York State Department of Education. I have experience in multiple types of therapy, and always take a client-centered focus to determine the best course of therapy for you. I am also particularly interested in a well-rounded and holistic approach to care, and have trained as a yoga instructor and doula as well.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
