About Abigail

Abigail Baglione is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 13 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship problems, family-of-origin patterns, trauma and abuse, mood concerns like depression and bipolar, anxiety, and substance concerns. She also supports people dealing with self-esteem, grief, stress, intimacy struggles, and issues related to ADHD and neurodiversity.

She views early attachment experiences as central to how people relate now. In sessions she talks through how early roles and expectations shaped current behavior and relationship choices. She pays attention to patterns that repeat across friendships, work, and romantic life rather than focusing only on symptoms.

Her practice draws on several evidence-based methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-focused ideas shape work on values and relationship patterns.

Abigail also brings client-centered listening and pragmatic exercises into sessions. She offers guidance on substance use concerns and on managing intense emotion in relationships. Her background includes long-term work with people who have trouble regulating emotions and with those navigating the effects of early caregiver relationships.

She offers mindfulness and body-awareness practices on request, drawing on her 500-hour yoga teacher training to support breathing and grounding exercises. People interested in that component can ask about it when they schedule a first session.

Approaches used in online sessions and practical fit

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small committed steps toward those values, often helping with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early caregiver relationships and how those patterns show up now, which can help when family-of-origin dynamics affect current relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and will adjust based on what helps the client meet their goals and preferences.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit appointments into a workday break, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. If someone prefers mindfulness or body-awareness exercises, Abigail can include breathing practices and guided meditations drawn from her yoga training. Talk with the therapist during your first scheduling steps about which session style would suit your routines and what you hope to accomplish.
