Its difficult finding a therapist. It means being vulnerable, asking for help, and taking time out for it. When starting therapy, take the pressure off yourself. You may know what issues you want to work on, or you may not. Sometimes the awareness of what is needed comes later. Maybe there are things you haven't told anyone, and would like to.

Hi I am Abby. I have worked a lot with college students struggling to adjusting to some of the major changes college life can be and help navigate difficult social, academic, or family situations in order to allow you to have the best experience you can. If you're navigating things like perfectionism, people-pleasing, struggles with socializing, a sense of “adulting wrong,” or questioning parts of yourself, I’d be like to support you. I take an approach of being curious about parts of ourselves...

Hey, Hi, I'm Fig—I'm a witchy, disabled, neurospicy, agender, queerdo who also happens to be a therapist. As an AuDHDer who has spent many years navigating the crushing weight of autism burnout in late stage capitalism, and the "Too Muchness" that seems to get tacked onto neurodivergent identities, I need you to know that I'm not here to "fix" you.

We all want to be happy. We may feel stuck or face challenges. Getting support from someone on the outside, in the counseling or psychology field, can help you gain a new perspective.

In my practice, I see adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families, and here’s a little bit about how I work: I work in the here-and-now and have background training in Gestalt theory and util...
