About Abigail
Abigail 'Abi' Kay is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. Abigail uses a Christian-informed perspective alongside evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions.
Abi helps people talk through relationship problems, communication breakdowns, and issues like codependency or commitment concerns. She also supports those dealing with serious health journeys, cancer, caregiving strain, hospice and end-of-life matters, and the emotional fallout of separation or infidelity. Guilt and shame are named concerns she addresses in her work.
Her sessions focus on practical coping strategies and clearer communication. Abigail blends respect for a person's spiritual beliefs with approaches that have research support. She aims to help clients notice patterns, try different ways of relating, and practice small changes between meetings.
Abi has experience helping people manage mood disorders, social anxiety, isolation, and the stress that comes with transitions such as postpartum adjustments or workplace strain. She describes grief recovery as a process of making space for feelings while learning ways to carry on day to day.
People who meet with her can expect straightforward conversation about goals, options, and next steps. She guides people toward building routines and skills that reduce overwhelm. To begin, she asks clients to identify priorities and picks practical steps to try between sessions.
How her approaches translate to online care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to address symptoms and patterns rather than relying on a single method. For example, practical skills work focuses on building coping tools and routines to manage anxiety, low mood, and overwhelm; this involves short exercises, behavior changes, and rehearsing new responses between sessions. Another common element is communication work, which breaks down how a person expresses needs and sets boundaries so relationship stress and codependency can be addressed with clear, specific steps. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Abigail will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. That conversation guides whether sessions emphasize skills practice, communication exercises, grief processing, or support around caregiving and medical stress. Confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, let someone join from a different location, or choose a shorter check-in when time is limited. Licensed professionals often use these practical advantages to help clients try new skills between sessions and keep progress moving without needing to rearrange major parts of daily life.Areas of expertise
