“I've known Abi for years... across personal, family, & business contexts. Throughout that time she’s always been open, honest & thoughtful in both word & deed.
She’s had a wide variety of life experiences that when combined with her personal character combine to uniquely position her to advise & assist others. Her intelligence, creativity, and caring essence allow an easy connection in conversation. She’s often given me new perspectives to consider as well as lifted my spirit with her insights.”

“Abi really helped show me a world of sexuality that is much more open, free and joy-filled...
while what makes her truly special is that she comes from a place, and with a heart, that honestly cares for others.”

“When I went through a difficult separation and heartbreaking custody battle, I lost myself and went on a dangerous downward spiral of substance abuse, self-loathing and insecurities.
Abi helped me realize my feelings were human, and with unbiased reasoning, she helped me acknowledge some of the roots of my personal issues and issues of my failed marriage, She assisted me in finding coherent perspective with my past and future life and find creative ways to practice healthy habits for body and mind in my present life. they say time heals, but without help and tools it sometimes seems impossible. Thank you so so much Abi.”

“Abi has given me above all - things in perspective. If I had to sum it up in one sentence. She has helped me to see just how open and welcoming the world can really be.”

“Depression had created a massive disconnect between my brain and body. Abi helped me inhabit my body again, feel present and be able to enjoy it. Abi helped me visualize how things could be and then gave me the tools to get there. As a bonus her guided meditations are the best.
On days when I couldn’t focus on anything other than how broken I felt, having Abi in my corner was amazing. There’s something incredibly special just in the way in which she held space for me.
I found it impossible to not feel dramatically uplifted after a session with Abi.
I felt like our sessions addressed my whole person and not just the sexy time parts. Get you some Abi time. Your life will change!”
— L.G.
“Let’s get you more involved.
Something that Abi said that really brought me into the situation on a much more personal level. Her words have power. She chooses them thoughtfully and puts them in an order that has impact. Listen to her, she understands the situation.”

“Ahhhhh and then along comes Abi, discerning, undeniably intelligent as always. Exploring my motives with many questions about why and what were my goals and exactly what I was trying to achieve with this endeavor of producing provocative images. Abi took the initiative with input and ideas, trust and understanding of my goals emerged.......I was given the permission to explore with trust and respect. I was not judged, it was as if I were taken by the hand guided on a journey with no baggage, no subject was taboo, the core of my being felt light. I was introduced to a world of sensual intellectual pleasure that I sorely missed in my own personal life, it was a world of creative excitement. My photography and creativity improved tremendously. It taught me to see beneath the skin and yet the skin was a canvas.
Light, texture of the skin angles of the body became a metaphysical evolution and mindful eyes wide open to creative combinations of possibilities. Abi enabled me to see what a woman was saying, not merely to listen......ergo, the lips will reveal what the eyes are saying and vice versa.
Knowing Abi has indeed been an inspiration, an honest, free and intuitive soul, she is.”

“I have always said that everyone should know someone like Abi.
Her attitude towards the naked body and sex positivity is not like anyone I've ever known before. She has taught me not just to avoid judgement of nakedness and sex, but to embrace an openness to all things related to these traditionally taboo topics. When you know Abi, her unbridled attitude can't help but rub off on you! It is incredibly freeing, and I encourage others to explore the sensation with Abi.”
— D.R.
“Dear Abi, before I met you I thought I was pretty open about sex topics but boy did I get an education on what judgement free really looks like and feels like!!
Your openness, honesty and authenticity shine through in everything you do.
Recognizing we are all on our own journeys (sometimes even repeating the same loops) has been very helpful to see patterns in my own love and romance choices. Thank you for being so amazingly accepting and loving - and helping me to see that loving myself is key to finding happiness.”
— N.O.
“Abi has helped me discover and navigate my desires in love and relationships and find the confidence to speak these desires to a partner. She’s given me tools to confront complicated emotions and conversations, and helps me stay grounded in my truth and my goals.
I have more understanding of my sexuality and more pleasure in my life because of you! Something that at one time, i never felt capable or worthy of.”

“It has been my genuine pleasure to work with Abi. She brings an extraordinary amount of knowledge and applies it with her own personal style.
Good luck finding a more genuinely engaged, energetic, helpful or non-judgmental practitioner. Her innate sense of my needs and customized experience (including her pacing) makes the hard work so much easier. Choose her, be open and honest, and your life cannot help but improve.”
— B.F.
“AbI doesn't give up on people. She truly believes in everyone's potential--mentally, physically, sexually, philosophically, spiritually--and will go out of her way to see someone fulfill their dreams.
Even when the person has given up and felt defeated, Abi is more than a cheerleader or a coach, but a living muse.”
— L.D.
“Interacting with Abi has been wonderful. Her approach to life, love, sex, and relationship has opened me up to new experiences and new ways of seeing the world and my place in it. She is incredibly easy to open up to: she has a rare gift in this regard. Time spent with her can be magical.”
— O.F.
“I have known Ms. Polus for more than 10 years, prior to when she became an Adjunct faculty member at a university medical school. As a physician, I have worked with and seen first hand how in merely minutes, individuals trust her and open up to her. She has rare empathy, both with others and with me personally. Her insights and judgment have made a real and positive difference.”
— D.S.
“Abi is a gift. She has an innate ability to filter out the congestion and uncertainty we find in ourselves. A true guiding light that will help illuminate areas of yourself that have been lost. Abi is a great asset to the journey of ourselves.”

“Recently I had learned that my son, who I have been estranged from for most of his life, had died at a young age. I was able to reach out to Abi and ask her why I felt just numb: I wasn’t sad about his death.
Using a combination of: breath work, meditation and visualization Abi and I were able to peel back layers of my feelings and how they relate to the person I am today, I was able to gain a new insight about my feeling guilty about not being the father I wanted to be to him, but was able to become a wonderful surrogate father to my friends' kids. Through the techniques Abi employed, I was able to learn that my numbness wasn’t a sign of indifference towards my son’s death, but a reflection of how I felt about growing over the years and becoming a father figure to friends. I was able to find peace over the fact that while I may have not been a father to my son, I never stopped loving him and wishing I could have been the man I am today for him when he was alive.
So I am going to end this testimonial by saying: I honestly in my heart and mind feel that if you are looking for a “life coach” to help you through hard times; whether it is due to stress of work and life, addiction, sexual identity, grief or any number of issues that we deal with daily I would say talk to Abi.”

“Abigail Polus brings out the best in people, myself included. How she does it remains a mystery, but my opinon is that her inate understanding of the human condition, her compassion for all beings and otherwordly communication has a lot to do with it.”

“Abi has explored the art of sensual self-love, both professionally and personally, for years. Through her experiences, she has inspired me to also enjoy the journey of self-love.”

“Over the course of our relationship, Abigail Polus has proven herself a loyal friend, a wise counselor, and a trustworthy confidant. The value of her influence, guidance, assistance and tireless abundant humanity- in my life, has been incalculable.”

“Having worked with Abi I can say without a doubt she is one for having a different approach towards life itself and on top of that she has a caring heart. I have witnessed countless times of going far and wide for the assistance of helping others in any circumstance whether the act was great or small there was no hesitation to lend a hand. There is much to say about a person who quite frankly is not your average wanderer, but one more attribute that can't go unnoticed is Abi's brave and unbashful nature of stepping towards what most would run away from.
By showing such acts of bravery and selflessness Abi emanates an example that can be felt by all that meet her and dare to ask and seek more than they know.”
— R.J.
“Abi has a way of being that provides this feeling of being held and, at the same time, seen as a completely autonomous, empowered, self contained human with gifts and talents and flaws and challenges.
When you're in that space she holds, you feel fully accepted and challenged at the same time - challenged to see yourself through the eyes of unconditional love and possibility; challenged to know in your body that you are never alone; and challenged mentally and emotionally to leave any feelings of fear or unworthiness behind.
I have worked with many practitioners and Abi is the real deal.”

“I’ve had an amazing experience with Abi in only three sessions so far. I’ve already noticed improvements in how I perceive things and am making subtle shifts. Abby creates an environment where I feel calm enough to reveal deep fears and be vulnerable.”
— S.B.
“I feel very comfortable talking with Abi about sex and relationships. Her interest in her field quickly comes through, and it is clear that she has spent a lot of time researching the topics of sex and relationships from a variety of different angles, citing eastern and western philosophies about different aspects of sexuality.
If you are looking for a warm and genuine person to help you navigate and openly discuss a subject that is typically fraught with taboo and societal hangups, I can think of no one better than Abi.”

“Guided by her creative and kind spirit, Abi always seems to find the ‘right words,’ directing my path toward self-discovery and resilience.
As a dear friend, she has been a blessing in my life for over a decade. I never expected to need her counsel as a therapist, but in recent years she has been a saving grace. She reminds me to treat myself with loving kindness. Abi provides not only love and support, but also resources.”
