I help people untangle old stories, explore who they are, and live with more self-trust.

Hey, I’m Abbie.

Work with Me

I’m a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of Kindled Space Therapy. I bring an intersectional lens to my work, along with a deep interest in how gender shapes the way we relate to ourselves and others.

I’m drawn to supporting young adults who are curious about identity, social expectations/relationships, and who are motivated to live in a way that feels more authentic. My therapeutic style is relational, affirming, and challenging. It is my goal to support you in the process of holding self-compassion while also empowering you to move closer to your goals. My approach is rooted in practices that honor the impact of trauma, culture, and lived experience. I’m committed to ongoing training in affirming care, inclusive therapy practices, and culturally responsive approaches because who we are as therapists matters just as much as what we know.

“Kindled Space” was created with the goal to support people who are exploring identity, connection, and all the anxieties in between. If that sounds like what you’re looking for, I’d love to connect.

My Approach

Collaborative

Healing happens in connection not in isolation. I bring a mix of attachment based therapy and trauma-informed care to my work. I naturally hold a relational and affirming presence, working at your pace but honoring your goal trajectory.

I see therapy as a place to untangle what’s been internalized, examine what your values and goals are, and make space for the next step.

I am trained in evidence-based modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. I pull from a range of popular therapeutic interventions. Our work together will be tailored and transparent.

The name “Kindled Space” came from a desire to evoke the experience in therapy where something alive and deeply true begins to take shape and grow. My goal as your therapist is to support you to that end. The concepts and experiences of identity, relationships, and difficult emotions are deeply human and fraught with sensitivity. There is so much to uncover and so much beauty in those initial sparks of insight. Together, we’ll watch those sparks become bold flames of self-understanding and meaningful change.

At Kindled Space, we can hold complexity, uncertainty, growth, and identity.
