GET TO KNOW ME

I enjoy working with ADHD and Autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, challenges relating to being a parent, and grief. I see adults, adolescents, and children ages 5 and up. I am associate licensed and currently under supervision. 

 

I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree from Georgia College & State University in 2021 with a major in Sociology. I then went on to receive my Master’s in Social Work from The University of Georgia in 2023. I obtained my LMSW license in the fall of 2023.

 

Hi I’m Abby! I work with children (ages 5 and up), teens, and adults, and have experience working with many different challenges including ADHD, Autism, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and self-harm as well as providing support for parents and family therapy. Before working at Work It Out Wellness, I worked at a partial hospitalization program for adolescents providing treatment to clients experiencing suicide ideation, self-harm and other life threatening behaviors. In addition to this, I also supported parents and families through these challenges. I mainly draw upon Humanistic Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Play Therapy to serve clients. I approach therapy from a trauma-informed perspective, and I completed DBT training through Treatment Implementation Collaborative in January of 2024. 

 

I believe that therapy is unique to the individual and that you are the expert of your own life. I want you to feel comfortable to be yourself in our sessions. I’ve been described as energetic, creative, and flexible, and this definitely shows in my approach to therapy. My goal is to adapt therapy to fit your needs, and to help you reach whatever goals you have!
