Hello! My name is Abigail, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) at Couples Therapy Ottawa. As a therapist, the most important thing to me is that everyone in the therapy room feels comfortable, validated and understood in their experiences. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I aim to honour that by creating a compassionate, non-judgemental space where you feel supported through life’s challenges.
My passion and commitment to supporting couples through difficult seasons is the foundation of my work. I work with couples going through a range of challenges including times of disconnection, struggling with intimacy, struggling with conflict and communication, and those navigating life transitions. I also have a deep understanding that no two people and no two couples are the same, which is why I take a collaborative and person centred approach to therapy. I integrate elements from Emotion-Focused Couple Therapy (EFCT), The Gottman Method, Attachment Theory and Somatic approaches to help couples meet their goals. My person centred approach allows me to tailor the therapeutic space and interventions to the unique needs of each person in the room.
In my work with individuals, I also take an eclectic and person-centred approach in order to help my clients feel supported when working towards their goals. I integrate elements from Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) into my practice. I support individuals struggling with grief, anxiety and depression, relational struggles, and setting boundaries, assertive communication and more.
When you feel ready, please reach out to me and we can begin this journey together. I look forward to walking beside you through this new experience and celebrating goals you reach along the way.
