About Abigail
Abigail Baglione is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She helps people dealing with relationship strain, jealousy, trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and questions about intimacy and self-worth. She has 13 years of clinical experience and aims to create a calm, direct space for people to talk through painful patterns and find clearer ways forward.
Abigail draws on several approaches to guide her work. She pays close attention to early attachment experiences and how those first relationships shape self-esteem and later connections. She also uses practical, skills-based methods to help with emotion regulation and harmful behavior cycles. Sessions are focused on real-life steps people can take between meetings.
She has worked with people who struggle with intense interpersonal emotions, including those with borderline personality features, as well as individuals navigating addiction and traumatic brain injury. Abigail brings a nonjudgmental stance and aims to reduce stigma around these experiences while helping clients build more reliable ways of relating.
In some sessions she integrates breathwork, body awareness, and guided meditation drawn from her 500-hour yoga teaching background. These practices are offered when they fit a person’s needs and goals and are presented as optional tools to support change.
Abigail offers a practical, conversational approach. She helps people identify what matters most, try new ways of coping, and notice what actually changes in daily life. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Abigail uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward, skills-oriented ways. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify personal values, and take small actions that align with what matters. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on teaching concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Abigail will talk with each person about their needs and goals and together decide which methods to try first. She aims to adapt exercises and skills practice so they fit the client's daily life and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people try body-awareness or guided-breathing exercises without extra travel. The therapist will discuss which session arrangements best support a client's goals and schedule.
