Zoe Strominger- Nurse Practitioner PMHNP & WHNP, San Francisco, CA
Abigail concocted an incredible bridal circle ceremony for me and my closest girlfriends on the morning of my wedding. This bridal ceremony made all the difference for me on my wedding day, providing plenty of grounding and a release for my nerves and emotion. She brought in the elements, the directions, chimes, and sage, and we all pulled cards and mine was Release. The striking relevance of that card was just like the poignancy of Abigail’s words and soothing voice. I loved being held by her presence and the way she led everyone to join our circle. My sister even mentioned that she was doubtful at first but found herself totally moved. Each member of the circle said a few words and also took a few moments to write notes to me, which would have been very hard to ask on my own. If you are looking for someone to lean on emotionally and spiritually in preparation for an important transition, Abigail will not disappoint. She is truly a priestess and we all absolutely need this kind of ceremony.

At the tail end of my pregnancy I started having a lot of anxiety over the unknown….how childbirth would go for me, the idea of a c-section and the overall concept and scariness of a major surgery, recovery from a major surgery, and what life would look like after. I was so excited to be growing a new life, but so nervous for all the unknowns ahead. Abigail and I did a hypnobirth session a week before my baby arrived, and it was a truly magical, and total perspective shifting experience. Her voice and guided thoughts and visualizations we went through in our hour session truly shifted my perspective from nervous of the unknown, to empowered and proud of my body and all it can do, and all the wonder to come. She also recorded our session, and my husband and I listened to it not only on the car ride to the hospital the day of the baby came, but again in the hospital room pre-op, and again during our birth. It gave us such peace in a wildly unknown and otherwise stressful situation. My husband was white knuckled and nearly hyperventilating from nerves and excitement until he listened to the recording, and immediately gained such peace and grounding. I cannot thank Abigail enough for how positively she effected our childbirth experience on that special day for both my husband and I, such magic! I 1000% strongly recommend her wonderful service to anyone!! Thank you Abigail!!

I was struggling nightly with white coat hypertension during my pregnancy – having tried just about everything with limited success, I searched for hypnotherapists online and was drawn to Abigail’s excellent reviews and holistic approach to hypnotherapy. The fact that she was a nurse practitioner gave me confidence she would fully understand my situation.
From our first consultation, I was extremely impressed by how intuitive she was, and how many evidence-based strategies she offered right off the bat. I felt very confident committing to two sessions in the few weeks leading up to my due date. The sessions were wonderful – I felt like Abigail knew just what I needed, and she took a very collaborative approach to our sessions, asking me what resonated, what was working / not working. She was so easy to talk to. By the time I delivered, my blood pressure during appointments and throughout labor was perfectly normal, and I fully attribute my success to Abigail’s coaching. I would highly recommend and hope to work with her again in the future!
Leila Preys- Nursing, SF South Bay, CA
I have been working with Abigail for over three years now, referred by another nurse, building my life, my identity, my body, my career, my relationships - everything has transformed. There are not enough words to describe how tremendous of a difference our sessions have made in my day to day life. Although I am still a work in progress, my work with Abigail and the tools she has given me have taken me from a young woman struggling with confidence, identity, low moods and hormonal swings, constant worry and overwhelm, anxiety symptoms, and disordered eating habits, to one that is confident, strong, self-loving and empowered. Abigail incorporates spirituality, the holistic self, and life coaching tips into our sessions, targeting problems and obstacles at the root cause with the best personalized guided visualizations and hypnotherapy. I use EFT everyday now! Although I have made great strides in my past two years with Abigail, I can not wait to continue working with her, learning more about myself, and becoming even more equipped to take on my daily challenges. If your time and budget permits, I highly recommend working with Abigail and committing to your healing journey.
Catherine G. - Fund Manager, San Francisco, CA
Twice I have turned to Abigail, both times when I was in distress and going through really tough challenges. She provides a safe space to open up and share what’s going on. And she takes the time to not only understand, but provide guidance and wisdom to feel hopeful again! What sets her apart from others is her empathy and ability to connect. I’ve seen a lot of professionals in my lifetime and there are a lot of coaches/therapists who seem disconnected. Sometimes I wonder if I’m paying them to hear myself talk and cry! They have no advice whatsoever. Literally staring at me quietly as if I have the answers when I’m already feeling so lost. Abigail is the opposite of that. She’s engaged and actively listening, and working to ensure that I’m in the right mindset after her care. Absolutely love working with her
Linda G - Real Estate Owner, San Francisco, CA
Abigail is more than a therapist. She is truly a spiritual healer. Every time I see her I feel so much better afterward. As a 68 year old woman going through the stages of life and what life has to offer, she has helped me to accept & embrace new health ups & downs. Abigail is able to hypnotize me and during these sessions the visuals she paints with her sweet voice take me to that place in a way that when I wake up from the hypnosis I feel like my state of consciousness was altered in a beautiful way no one else can do. My daughter has worked with Abigail too and we joke that she is a good witch and I do mean good! She has powers & empathy you will not find in any other person. Work with her if you want to transform your life because she is a beautiful ray of light you will not find anywhere else.
Gina Klein- Sales/Marketing Tech, San Francisco, CA
Working with Abigail completely transformed my life. She helped me to lean into the challenges that I was facing with full faith that the light would shine even brighter once I had. If you are looking for someone to work with, I can give you a Gina Klein guarantee that working with Abigail will be an experience like no other and you will see the world through a clearer and more beautiful lens once you have.
Toby Barnes - Physician/Psychiatrist, Huntington Beach, CA
Abigail Bruce is well known by me, and I can say that I would be hard pressed to find a more caring and competent nurse practitioner, coach, guide, and therapist than she has proven to be. I have worked with her extensively for several years, and I have found no weaknesses in her professional abilities and commitment to her clients. As a psychiatrist for over 40 years, I am grateful to have her association, and can easily recommend her without reservation.
Olivia - Real Estate Developer, San Francisco, CA
Abigail is the most sincere and holistic support I have ever received in my life. I actually found her on Yelp over a year ago and have been consistently impressed with how her practice has helped me – in all facets of my life. Her experience from the medical field to religion has proved extremely relevant. I never had a life coach before Abigail and she has helped my life stay on track and stress manageable. The part I love most about her versus having a “regular” therapist is that she actually gives concrete advice. No matter what you are looking for in support in your life, Abigail has the tools to support you. She is an amazing soundboard for ideas and gives you the confidence you may be looking for to lead the life you DESERVE. Five stars.
