Abigail Hirschfeld LCSW

The college years can be full of fun and excitement, and they can also come with all kinds of challenges - academic pressure, perfectionism, anxiety, homesickness, identity shifts, and major life changes. You may be coping with experiences or challenges you faced before you got to college, or you may be facing new feelings that you aren't sure how to navigate. Whatever it is you’re going through right now, I’ll meet you with compassion & honesty, and we will work together toward your goals as a team. This is always an LGBTQI+ Safe Space.

I began my work in mental health 10 years ago and have since worked with all ages in many settings.
I support students who are navigating:

- Anxiety and perfectionism
- Depression
- Trauma and past experiences
- Chronic illness and chronic pain
- Homesickness and life transitions
- Identity and self-worth

I also support clients in navigating complex medical and school systems, learning self-advocacy, & processing painful experiences. I help clients realize their inner strength, and feel empowered in their own care and in their lives.

My approach to therapy is rooted in trust & rapport, because that’s what makes this work together possible. I am warm, honest, and encourage clients to challenge & dismantle negative beliefs they have about themselves.

If you are feeling ready to take next steps, please reach out - I'd love to work with you!
