Abby not only does amazing work with families, but she also takes the time and effort to thoughtfully engage with her community and educate them on important topics such as family systems, mental health, child development, nervous system regulation, the parent/child bond, the needs of Highly Sensitive People and much more. When you read Abby’s work, you know immediately that she “does her homework,” as it’s well-researched, but more importantly you can sense her passion and commitment. I highly recommend Abby for anyone looking to improve the harmony within their family!

“Abigail is easy to talk to. She is warm, caring and listens with an empathetic ear. She is highly qualified to work with families from her years of experience both personally and professionally.”
