ABBEY CONTINUED…
I try very hard to role model the work/life balance I want for my clients and their families. In my personal time I enjoy hiking, yoga, traveling, napping (I pride myself on my ability to take a good nap) and seeing live theater or music. I enjoy the idea of cooking but would much rather be cooked FOR. Thank goodness for talented friends and family. We all deserve rest and joy and connection that has nothing to do with productivity or making money.
What are you doing just for enjoyment these days??
THERAPIST & MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTANT
There are times in life we all need help becoming unstuck. My purpose is to provide you with the most comprehensive support possible, considering not only your individual self but also the environments that influence you, which might sometimes hold you back.
I do individual therapy with folks 13 years and older. I especially enjoy working with older adolescents and young adults attempting to navigate their way into adulthood. I have specific training in eating disorders, anxiety, body image distress and trauma. I utilize therapy tools from EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
When I’m not working with clients I am an Adult and Youth Mental Health First Aid instructor. To learn more about MHFA and bring it to your community or workplace, visit here.
