Hello, there.

My name is Abigail (Abbee) Hanson. After working at Sand Castle Counseling for 7 years, I opened Linden Blossom Counseling, LLC in July 2024.

My passion is to help teens, adults, and families tackle life’s curveballs with the grace of a cat landing on its feet—healthy, effective, and maybe even with a little style. I believe that any solid relationship begins with trust, compassion, and a safe space where you can just be your wonderful self. I believe in client-directed work—with individuals setting the pace and taking responsibility for their work. It can be a bit daunting to dive headfirst into the whirlpool of self-discovery—so taking that first brave step and trusting me as your guide is truly commendable. I am honored to support you on this expedition into the wonderful, if occasionally confusing, landscape of "you."
