Abby supports individuals aged 14 and above dealing with various mental health challenges like eating disorders, sports-related performance anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, and prenatal-postnatal concerns. She specializes in working with athletes at high school, college, and professional levels. Abby employs therapeutic approaches including CBT-E, IPT, FBT, ACT and IFS. She has presented at athletic conventions, emphasizing preventive care for eating disorders among athletes, and is passionate about raising awareness of mental health in the athletic community.
With experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, Abby has directly supported clients battling eating disorders. She derives fulfillment from aiding individuals in breaking free from disordered eating and reclaiming control over their lives.
In Abby's words, "Eating Disorders are immensely misunderstood, causing daily struggles with food. Recovery is possible and incredibly rewarding, but it requires confronting entrenched fears and thought patterns. Whether it's supporting someone in recovery or helping concerned parents, guiding individuals towards a fulfilling life is a privilege."
