Fun Fact: When I’m not working, I’m either making a chaotic art project or reading something that would have seen me burned at the stake in the 1600s.
Hey there!My name is Abi and I'm a disabled, neuroqueer therapist who's passionate about working with individuals and relationships. I work with most neurotypes under the neurodivergent umbrella, and I do my best work with neuroqueer folks who feel as though they need a therapist with lived experience who can understand them and help them find tangible ways of coping, healing, and thriving. I am a subculturally-affirming therapist and my clinical expertise includes OCD, bipolar, autism, ADHD, complex trauma, disabilities, accessibility, mixed-neurotype relationships, poly relationships, kink, shame, and the overly self-aware.
My approach to therapy is always collaborative and affirming. I pull from queer and narrative theories, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and somatic modalities. I believe that you are the expert in your life and that people are not the problems - the problem is the problem and together we can find effective ways of contending with it.
Outside of client work, I am active in consultation groups and leftist advocacy for the queer communities in Texas because I recognize that therapy is always political.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time in nature (I live in rural Texas), reading (a little bit of every genre), making art (especially collaging), and spending time with my girlfriend and our three familiars (our dog and two cats).
