Abigail Baglione , LCSW

Abigail Baglione is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York with a Master of Social Work from New York University School of Social Work. Her practice blends clinical knowledge with a deep focus on early attachment patterns, informed by object relations theory, to explore how first relationships shape self-esteem and later ways of relating.

She brings 13 years of experience working with adults across a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, relationship and family challenges, addiction, mood disorders, anxiety, grief, and issues related to intimacy and identity. Abigail has particular experience supporting people who struggle with emotion regulation - including those diagnosed with borderline personality disorder or living with traumatic brain injury - and she approaches these patterns without judgment while emphasizing the possibility of change.

Her clinical toolbox is eclectic and includes acceptance and commitment principles, attachment-based work, client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills for managing intense emotion and improving interpersonal functioning. In addition to psychotherapy, she is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher who integrates body awareness practices and guided meditation when appropriate and requested. Abigail values collaborative work that helps people build practical skills, strengthen relationships, and develop a more resilient sense of self.

Attachment-informed and Skills-based Online Therapy

Abigail integrates attachment-based therapy to explore how early relationships shape patterns of relating and self-worth. This approach helps clients identify longstanding relational themes and develop new ways of connecting that support healthier relationships and greater emotional clarity.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT can be particularly helpful for people who experience intense emotions or have difficulty managing conflict in relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Abigail works with each client to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and then adapts techniques from ACT, CBT, attachment work, and DBT as appropriate. Together they prioritize practical strategies and gradual change that fit the client’s life.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access therapy from home or other convenient locations. Licensed professionals can deliver the same therapeutic tools and supportive collaboration through these formats to help clients move toward their goals.
