Abigail Joseph is a gentle, kind and compassionate therapist. She is very thoughtful about the providing the best type of therapy to help reach personal goals. In addition to the appointment time, she provides a variety of different questionnaires, materials and tools to use outside of therapy. She often writes out some questions to answer prior to the next appointment. I find that I get so much more out of my weekly appointment by writing out my answers. I think she enjoys finding what works best for you. This is much more than just a weekly appointment, it's truly about making positive changes in a gentle way.
