In 2019, Abigail embarked on a mission to revolutionize mental health care by creating a sanctuary where individuals could choose their path to healing trauma.

Abigail's approach is rooted in the philosophy that trauma impacts the whole person, necessitating a comprehensive treatment model. This belief forms the cornerstone of SLCW, the only practice in the area solely focused on trauma-informed care for the whole person.

Her career highlights include completing EMDR Basic Training in 2014, achieving EMDRIA Certification in 2019, and becoming an EMDRIA Approved Consultant. This wealth of experience not only informs her clinical work but also positions her as a valuable resource for other EMDR therapists seeking professional consultation.

Since its inception, SLCW has experienced significant growth, a testament to the effectiveness of Abigail's vision and the increasing demand for trauma-informed care. This expansion has led Abigail to shift her focus from direct client work to facilitating the growth of SLCW's service offerings. In this evolving role, she continues to serve the community by ensuring that SLCW remains at the forefront of trauma-informed care, offering innovative and comprehensive healing approaches.
