OUR HEALING COLLECTIVE
ABBY REYNOLDS, THERAPIST, PRE-LPC
HI, I'M ABBY
I approach therapy from a trauma informed perspective, holding the belief that everyone is shaped by larger systems and their unique individual lived experiences. I work to hold a space for individuals to tell their stories and be curious about themselves in a way that provides emotional relief and healing for the mind, body and spirit. My goal is to connect with clients through building a meaningful relationship based on patience, empathy, trust, and kindness. I strive to continuously meet clients where they are at in their journey through nonjudgmental support that empowers individuals in their journey towards self-compassion, balance, and authenticity.
I am particularly dedicated to working with life transitions, self-esteem, sexual dysfunction, relational difficulties, ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression.
"I BELIEVE COLLABORATION AND KINDNESS HELP US HEAL"
Furthermore, my passion extends to working with various forms of trauma, with a specific focus on sexual trauma and/or attachment trauma that may be rooted in challenges from a client’s upbringing. I have extensive experience working with adolescents, young adults, and adults. I focus on embodied styles of processing that take a bottom-up approach to healing. The main modalities that I pull from are emotion focused therapy, parts work, somatic experiencing, and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT). I believe in working collaboratively with each of my clients to create specialized treatment plans that are specifically tailored to their unique goals and needs.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Iowa and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Adler University. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and neurodiverse affirming.
