testimonials
“when i had my peer support call with abbie, i was navigating a period of immense personal upheaval. i didn’t even realize how deeply i needed someone to truly see and understand me until she did. her ability to witness my experience with such genuine validation and care was profoundly healing.
abbie brings a depth of understanding that only someone with lived experience can offer. in our conversation, the weight i had been carrying for so long—often in complete isolation—began to lift. just having someone say, “i get it,” and mean it, softened something in me that had been held so tightly for decades. i’ve lived with pmdd for almost 25 years, much of that time suffering alone, feeling unseen and misunderstood. abbie offered me a moment of connection, of being truly witnessed, that i’ll never forget. her support reminded me that i am not alone—and that is an invaluable gift.”

“i have struggled with pmdd for several years and have sought help from many licensed therapists and healthcare providers, but i have never felt as genuinely understood or connected with anyone as i do with abbie. she truly gets it.
in my pmdd journey, i have often felt a profound sense of loneliness, but finding abbie - who can relate to and understand my challenges - has made me feel both incredibly validated and less isolated. i feel like i’m not alone in this anymore.
in our sessions, i can be my authentic self with her. she creates that warm, comfortable space where i feel safe and not judged; i can show up without fear, anxiety or shame, and it’s like talking to a caring friend or a big sister who gives that genuine love and understanding that you need.
she patiently and attentively listens to my unique needs and situation and offers real, practical steps for growth that are tailored to me. such dedicated support is truly rare and invaluable, and i can’t recommend her enough to anyone dealing with pmdd, premenstrual issues, or just any kind of personal struggle.”

“it feels so empowering to work with abbie. with similar lived experiences and exceptional listening skills, she makes me feel seen, heard and understood. she creates a completely judgement-free space for me to share my biggest vulnerabilities.
i came away from one session with a practical tool for anxious thoughts and unhelpful patterns.
abbie is helping me to become the self-respecting person that i want to be, and to create the life that i want to live. i cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“an incredible listener is a rare thing. listening is a skill we all think we have, and yet, very few of us act as a sounding board in the way abbie does.
she is hugely empathetic, attentive to the subtleties of what you're saying and highly knowledgeable on the theory, and practice of pmdd. if you want someone who just 'gets it' when it comes to pmdd, abbie is that person.”

“when i reached out to abbie i was really struggling and i needed human contact with someone who i could feel safe with and supported by.
abbie really listens and has a lot of lived experience to draw upon. she was kind and respectful when I was finding it hard to talk coherently and I did not feel pressured to have to try to explain in detail what was going on other than I felt unsafe and needed help.
abbie stayed with me, suggesting and showing me ways to regulate, and any initial worries soon vanished. i felt very safe with her.”
