Abigail Oakley, LCPC

Abigail believes in using a holistic approach to therapy regardless of which client steps through her door. She works with clients to integrate each aspect of themselves into a whole and healthy person. Abigail believes that underlying trauma and pain from a person’s past greatly influences who they are today and puts a special emphasis on how family roles impact that trauma. Identifying and processing the memories from past trauma is important for a person to be able to begin the process of healing. She found that she especially enjoys working with clients who struggle with PTSD, trauma, self-harm, substance abuse issues and those who have experienced domestic violence. Abigail focuses on a strengths based approach and working with setting emotional and physical boundaries, building healthy self-esteem, assertiveness and communication skills. The main therapeutic approaches she uses are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Adlerian Therapy, and trauma informed substance abuse treatment.
