Abigael Davis, LCSW
TRAUMA THERAPIST. BRAINSPOTTING SPECIALIST. LICENSED IN NY, NJ & MD
Hi, I'm Abigael. I help women move through trauma using approaches that work with your nervous system, not just your words. My goal for every client is to achieve real change without spending years feeling stuck.
What it’s like to work with me
Therapy shouldn't take years before you start feeling different. From our very first session, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, define what you're working toward, and create a plan to help you get there. Every session has a purpose because I believe therapy should move you forward.
Maybe you've been to therapy before and spent months—or even years—talking about your pain without experiencing lasting change. Insight matters, but it isn't the whole picture. That's why I use Brainspotting, EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and IFS-informed techniques to help you process trauma, shift patterns that no longer serve you, and experience real healing.
After years of working with hundreds of women, I've refined an approach that blends evidence-based therapies with resources and strategies that help you make meaningful progress, both in and outside of therapy. My goal is for you to leave every session with more than hope: you'll leave with clarity, practical tools, and a deeper understanding of yourself.
My story
My passion for trauma therapy deepened through a brief opportunity to serve overseas, where I had the privilege of working closely with survivors of human trafficking and hearing the stories of many young survivors firsthand. That experience shaped my understanding of trauma, resilience, and the need for healing approaches that go beyond simply talking about what happened.
Early in my career, I worked as a trauma therapist at a domestic violence agency serving the Deaf community. I noticed many clients could share their stories but still felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. This led me to pursue Brainspotting, EMDR, and Cognitive Processing Therapy—approaches that support deeper processing and lasting change.
I especially love walking alongside Christian women seeking healing, freedom, and a deeper understanding of God’s love and redemption.
