Abigail Payne

Hi, I'm Abigail Payne (she/her), a licensed clinical social worker. I specialize in working with women navigating Complex PTSD (CPTSD) and attachment-related trauma, often showing up as anxiety, low self-esteem, or painful relationship patterns. Many of the women I work with feel exhausted or discouraged by these patterns, especially when they understand what's happening but still feel stuck. I help women move beyond insight and into embodied change, so attachment patterns can actually begin to shift.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and depth-oriented. I integrate EMDR, somatic approaches, and parts work to support deeper healing beyond insight alone. While awareness is powerful, lasting change comes from working with the emotional and relational patterns shaped by trauma.
