Abby Whiting, LSW
Abby has 1-2 select openings.
It takes courage to seek help, and I’m so glad you’re here! I believe that therapy provides a space where you can pause, breathe, and take a gentle look at your life without judgment. In working with me, my goal is to help you understand yourself better. As an Associate Mental Health Therapist, I integrate elements of Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed parts work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based practices as part of a trauma-informed and person-centered approach that we adapt to your individual needs.
My passion lies in working with young people and adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma (especially religious and complex!). As a queer clinician, creating a safe, affirming, and deeply supportive space for the LGBTQIA+ community is at the heart of everything I do. I have roots in suicide prevention, community education, and advocacy work– perspectives that inform my understanding of both individual and systemic barriers to wellness.
Before entering the field of mental health, I worked as a teacher in Loveland, Colorado. I hold a degree in Secondary English Education from the University of Wyoming, and a Master of Social Work from Colorado State University. As a Licensed Social Worker, I bring an understanding of how the environment and systems around us impact our relationship with mental health, as well as how awareness and empowerment can ignite powerful and personal change.
I’ll show up to our sessions as a real human being, bringing warmth, authenticity, and a splash of humor. Even when things feel overwhelming or heavy, we can still find moments of connection and growth. I’d love to support you as you take your power back and move forward with self-compassion and clarity.
I accept HSA/HRA/FSA, out-of-network and in-network insurance coverage with Medicaid (Northeast Health Partners, RMHP, Colo Access and CCHP), CHP+, Optum/United/UMR, Aetna, Anthem, and Cigna .
I also provide sliding scale upon request.
