"Abby is an exceptional coach. Her unique blend of education and training in business, therapy and coaching puts her in an elite category and positions her as a highly valuable resource to anyone she coaches. For me, she was able to help me integrate our coaching work with therapy I was doing separately and simultaneously. Because of her background, she understood the process I was in and made space for me to bring insights gained in therapy into our coaching sessions. But she was also very good at honoring my therapy process and holding the boundary of our coaching relationship, directing me back to therapy when appropriate. For anyone doing therapy while also getting coaching, she is an ideal coach. I worked with Abby on and off over the course of two years, and it was a truly transformative experience. While I was clear on my destination, I was struggling to get there. And that’s where Abby really made an impact. She helped me identify what was getting in my way, offered alternative points of view to challenge my own paradigms, shared helpful resources and tools along the way and celebrated my progress, no matter how minor it was at the time. She was able to meet me where I was and work with me at my pace. It was the epitome of the “go slow to go fast” concept. Now, I am well on my way to also becoming a coach, and I hope I can have the same kind of impact on someone that Abby did on me. She is an inspiring role model and indispensable mentor to me, and I imagine to countless others she has coached along the way."
