About Holly

Holly Abbott is an LPC with 16 years of counseling experience who works from Georgia and focuses on helping people navigate complex life challenges.

Background and approach

She brings a background that includes work in school settings, independent practice, and community agencies, supporting youth, adolescents, individuals, and families through issues such as trauma and abuse, ADHD, anxiety and depression, autism, relationship struggles, grief, parenting concerns, and major life transitions. Holly draws on a breadth of clinical experience to match interventions to each person's needs.

Her style emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and a straightforward, approachable presence that helps people feel heard and understood. She uses evidence-informed methods while centering the client's goals, adjusting techniques to fit individual circumstances and preferences.

Whether someone is coping with stress, working through attachment or communication problems, facing caregiving strain, or seeking coaching around career or self-esteem, she aims to collaborate on practical steps that lead toward greater meaning and daily functioning.

Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client's pace to define goals and priorities; it supports people navigating relationship, identity, grief, and life transition concerns by honoring individual values and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that maintain distress and teaching practical skills to change them, often useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each client to determine which combination of methods best matches their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and choose the style of interaction that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
