About Abigail

Abigail Baglione is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, addiction, mood differences such as bipolar and depression, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. Her practice also addresses ADHD, grief, stress, and many other life changes.

She describes an approach shaped by early attachment relationships and object relations ideas. Abigail pays attention to how early caregiving affects how people relate to themselves and others. She believes those early patterns help explain current difficulties but that change is possible and often worth working toward.

Abigail uses several evidence-informed methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotional regulation. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas and client-centered principles to help people notice what matters and make practical changes. In sessions she may include grounding, body awareness, and meditation practices when people want them.

She has specific experience with clients who struggle with emotion regulation and relationship instability, and with people managing substance use concerns. Abigail also provides psychotherapy to adults with traumatic brain injury who are working on emotional control and everyday functioning.

Abigail completed a Master of Social Work at New York University School of Social Work and holds the LCSW credential in New York. She is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher and offers breathwork and guided meditations when requested. If unsure about session fit, she asks people to reach out and discuss scheduling and approach.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Abigail commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values, which can help when anxiety or avoidance get in the way of daily life. DBT teaches specific skills for managing strong emotions and improving how people relate to others, useful for people who struggle with emotional swings or relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods over time. The process is collaborative - clients and the therapist review what helps and change course when needed.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people prefer audio-only exchanges when bandwidth is limited or when they want a less visual session. Discuss format preferences during the initial scheduling step to determine what will work best.
