About Abigail

Abigail Baglione is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 13 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, family concerns, trauma and abuse, mood issues, anxiety, addiction, grief, and stress related to life changes.

She emphasizes how early relationships shape self-esteem and later relating. That perspective comes from object relations ideas and attachment-based thinking. Abigail notices patterns that trace back to primary caregivers and uses that understanding to help people see how their past affects current choices.

Her approach draws from several methods including acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior therapy. She often focuses on emotion regulation and practical skills to manage strong feelings. Sessions can include attention to body awareness and brief meditative practices drawn from her yoga background when clients are interested.

Abigail has worked with people who have borderline personality features and with those recovering from substance misuse. She also provides psychotherapy to adults with traumatic brain injury and uses techniques that support emotion regulation and daily functioning. She avoids judgment and works with clients who want to address patterns that interfere with relationships.

To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and committing to actions that reflect personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and decisions about relationships by focusing on what matters rather than on eliminating feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early caregiver relationships and how those patterns influence current relating. It helps when people want to understand why they react a certain way with partners or family members.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to test methods and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and therapist plan goals together and try practical tools, then refine the approach if needed.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy home life or workday, save commute time, and allow quick check-ins when a shorter meeting is useful. Some people prefer sessions that include brief guided meditations or body-awareness exercises, which she can offer if requested. Overall, the focus is on making therapy practical and workable alongside everyday responsibilities.
