Trauma-Informed Online Therapy for Women, Couples & Moms of ND Kids

Supporting First-Generation Women & Parenting Neurodivergent Children

Abigail is a trauma therapist specializing in supporting first-generation women of immigrant parents and mothers of neurodivergent children. Her work focuses on the emotional load, identity tension, and chronic stress that come with carrying responsibility for others, helping clients reconnect with themselves and build more sustainable ways of coping.

Her approach is grounded, affirming, and deeply human, offering a space to exhale, process, and begin reconnecting with yourself—even in the midst of survival mode. If you’re carrying expectations—from your family, your culture, or yourself—you don’t have to carry them alone.

    Who Abigail Supports

    Abigail offers virtual therapy for women and couples seeking a space to move from survival mode back into their own lives. Her clients often include:

  • Mothers of Neurodivergent Children: Navigating the unique weight of advocacy fatigue, emotional exhaustion, and the identity shifts that come with parenting kids with diverse needs.
  • Women with ADHD & Chronic Burnout: Supporting those struggling with executive dysfunction, sensory overwhelm, and the "invisible load" of modern womanhood.
  • Couples in Distress: Utilizing Gottman Method principles to help partners move past resentment, improve communication, and rebuild emotional connection.
  • Intersectional & BIPOC Women: Providing a culturally responsive space to explore systemic stress, cultural pressures, and the healing of intergenerational patterns.
  • Caregivers & Empaths: Helping those who carry the emotional weight of others to establish sustainable boundaries and recover from role fatigue or chronic guilt.

Behind the Bio: The Human Behind the Therapist

(Because yes, therapists are humans too—coffee-loving, podcast-bingeing, deep-feeling humans!)

Comfort Food Favourite: Mac and cheese—rich, cheesy, and unbeatable
A Highly Recommended Read: Anything by Freida McFadden—Abigail loves a twisty psychological thriller
A Go-To Way to Unwind: Cringy reality TV (hello 90 Day Fiancé), a soft blanket, and zero judgment
