About Abigail
Abigail 'Abi' Kay is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Utah with eight years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and major life changes. Sessions include attention to caregiving strain, cancer-related stress, and other stressful life events.
Abi uses a Christian-informed perspective alongside evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She works with individuals on communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, and challenges after separation or divorce. Conversations often center on practical coping strategies and clearer thinking about next steps.
She also supports people dealing with end-of-life and hospice-related concerns, grief after loss, and the pressures that come from caregiving roles. Abi aims to help clients reduce isolation, address guilt or shame, and rebuild routines that make daily life easier.
In sessions she focuses on concrete skills - managing mood, interrupting unhelpful patterns, and improving how people talk about needs. She helps clients practice new responses and plan small, workable changes between meetings. Progress is described in everyday terms and measured by how life feels day to day.
Her work is grounded in her social work background and Utah licensure. People who value faith-informed conversation alongside practical therapeutic tools may find her approach a good fit.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques form the backbone of her work. One commonly used approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. This helps with anxiety, low mood, and repetitive relationship problems by giving concrete skills to test in daily life.Another approach emphasizes grief and coping strategies that help people process loss and manage practical steps during end-of-life or caregiving situations. These methods break tasks into manageable pieces and address both emotion and routine changes.
Choosing the right method is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals, worries, and preferences and then tries approaches that fit the client's needs. Progress is monitored and methods are adjusted as needed so sessions stay useful and relevant.
The biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or keeping appointments while managing caregiving or work obligations. Licensed professionals can tailor session pacing and homework to match everyday schedules.
