Abigail 'Abi' Kay

Abigail 'Abi' Kay is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Utah who offers support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. She blends evidence-based therapeutic techniques with Christian-informed perspectives when clients wish to include their faith in sessions. Abi focuses on helping people make sense of hard moments and find practical ways forward.

She helps people handle relationship strain, communication problems, and issues like codependency or infidelity. She also works with those navigating serious health concerns such as cancer, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce. Sessions emphasize clear goals and small, steady steps toward relief.

With eight years of clinical experience, Abi uses structured tools alongside empathetic conversation. She encourages new skills for coping, managing mood, and reducing anxiety. Work often includes practicing communication strategies and identifying unhelpful patterns in daily life.

Abi’s Christian-informed stance means she respects and incorporates a client’s spiritual beliefs when requested, while keeping the work practical and focused on everyday changes. She aims to help people build resilience and restore a sense of control after upsetting events.

People who choose Abi will find a therapist who listens carefully, helps set achievable goals, and checks progress along the way. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Abi uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes. One common approach focuses on building coping skills and behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and depression; it emphasizes small experiments and concrete strategies for daily life. Another approach centers on grief and loss work, giving space to name emotions, process difficult events, and create routines that support recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Abi will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping sessions collaborative and goal-focused.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into a busy week, makes it easier to maintain continuity of care through life changes, and allows shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can also reduce travel time and let clients practice new skills in their everyday routines while still getting professional guidance.
