It may be your first ever therapy appointment or you may be deciding to re-establish in therapy after some time; regardless, you are taking the first, often hardest, step towards your healing journey. There are many misconceptions about therapy that may have discouraged you from seeking therapy. Many think that therapy is a one-way conversation or that I am going to make you discuss issues that you wish not to. I use a collaborative, person-centered approach in which you remain the expert of your own life and I am there to guide you through the process of healing.
I utilize several approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing to name a few. As a trauma informed care therapist, I specialize in trauma, as well as depression and anxiety.
Together we will identify your concerns and goals and I will guide you, in a safe and supportive way, through the change process. If this sounds like what you are looking for in your therapy journey, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to meeting you!
Additional areas of focus: Abandonment, Attachment issues, Body image, Communication problems, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Impulsivity, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Mood disorders , Post-traumatic stress, Self-love, Sexuality, Social anxiety and phobia

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Abigail Williams. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Abigail takes the time to listen and address all of my concerns. She is knowledgeable in all of the feedback she provides me. She makes me feel valued. She checks in with me periodically to make sure that I am making the growth and reaching the goals I have set for myself.
