Abigail Oot is passionate about helping children, adolescents, and parents achieve their fullest potential. She creates a safe and collaborative environment by practicing a warm and non-judgmental approach. While she most often works through a psychodynamic lens, she also pulls other modalities such as motivational interviewing and play therapy. When working with children, Abigail uses play, humor, and other behavioral methods as tools to make children feel comfortable and heard. Abigail helps adolescents and parents identify patterns in emotions, thoughts and beliefs, which often first present in childhood, in order to gain insight to areas of growth and strengths.
