Gabe is amazing! His ability to listen and offer insight on very complex issues is incredible. I am always impressed with how effortlessly he can provide resources to help me beyond our sessions.

Gabe is very helpful in helping to break the chain of codependence and controlling yourself rather than focusing on how to fix or help others in our family. He doesn't do platitudes, but gives you the advice you need to hear and help you respond in a way that you might not normally think to do. I have found his advice very very helpful and will use some of his catch phrases for life.

I have had two sessions so far, but by far he has helped me out tremendously. He listens to what you have to say and takes time to understand you. I’ve had a couple therapist in the past and I feel like I have made more improvement in just our first two visits than the other times combined.
