aBIGAIL’S Certifications
Abigail is a Registered Nurse in good standing with the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO). She is also a proud member of the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO), where she is actively involved in the Nurse Psychotherapist Interest Group.
She believes in lifelong learning and professional growth, and makes it a priority to connect with other nurse psychotherapists to share knowledge, insight, and support. This is done via both consultation and mentorship from more experienced practitioners.
At this time, she primarily practices Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — a structured, evidence-based approach that helps patients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. As she continues to grow in this field, she plans to expand her education and training to incorporate additional therapeutic modalities to better support the diverse needs of clients in today’s society.
Her experience in the emergency department at a schedule one mental health facility also largely contributes to her experience and knowledge of mental health conditions and how to care for patients who are experiencing crisis.
Abigail’s career goals include returning to University in Fall of 2026 to obtain a Masters Degree — specific to psychotherapy and/or nursing.
