About Abigail

Abigail Buteau is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with five years of clinical experience supporting people across different stages of life. She has worked with individuals facing major mental health challenges, substance use concerns, and dual diagnoses, offering practical strategies and steady support when symptoms feel overwhelming. Her background includes substantial work with children and families involved in the foster care system who have experienced abuse, abandonment, neglect, and complex trauma, as well as with families navigating adoption-related challenges.

Abigail has also supported older adults and their families through difficult decisions and coping with serious illness toward the end of life. She approaches therapy as a partnership, collaborating with clients to identify the issues that matter most and to explore realistic, client-driven solutions. While solution-focused in orientation, she centers the client and allows each person to guide the direction of sessions. Abigail aims to create a respectful, therapeutic space where clients can strengthen coping skills, address relational and parenting concerns, and move toward clearer goals and greater resilience. Her practice addresses trauma and abuse, parenting and family dynamics, stress and anxiety, grief and intimacy concerns, mood disorders, and career and life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the client leads the pace and priorities of work; it helps people who need space to explore their feelings and find their own solutions. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clear, forward-looking goals and practical steps to build change quickly; it is useful for clients who want targeted strategies for parenting, relationship issues, or coping with stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impact of traumatic experiences through techniques that reduce symptoms and support adaptive coping; it is appropriate for those affected by abuse, neglect, or complex trauma.

Choosing the right approach is often part of the therapeutic process. Abigail collaborates with each client to identify the methods that best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and connect with licensed professionals from convenient locations.
