We all face challenges in life. Reaching out for help requires strength and courage, and as a therapist, it is important to me to provide an environment where the client can feel heard, validated and safe. My name is Gabby and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I will provide a supportive and compassionate environment that allows space to explore challenges, intense emotions, and trauma. With over 20 years of clinical experience, I provide support for clients living with depression, anxiety, trauma and substance use. I also address relationship issues, anger management and self-esteem . In additional to providing an environment to process emotions, I feel it is imperative to explore and develop new strategies for managing intense emotions. This allows for forward progress, by learning new skills to manage old behaviors and thought patterns. This encompass not only mental and emotional health ,but also overall wellness, including diet, exercise, sleep and self-care. I believe the client is the expert on their life and therefore my role as the therapist is to empower them to identify, utilize and build on their personal strengths. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I collaborate with clients to develop personal treatment plans. Utilizing CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), I teach clients how to recognize the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors . I provide insight and encouragement as the client begins to challenge their thoughts, thus learning how to choose actions instead of continuing the cycle of reacting. Finally, I teach distress tolerance skills using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), including mindfulness, grounding skills and breathing techniques as a way to manage intense emotions. Taking the step to seek therapy is a sign of strength. My primary goal as the therapist is to promote and encourage change within clients that bring peace and balance back to their lives.

When we share a session together, we focus on your gifts and strengths as you journey towards wholeness and healing. My work as a therapist is guided by the idea that all humans are deserving of connection, acceptance, and nurturing support. Working with people who have experienced trauma, utilizing an eclectic therapy approach including play, building safer attachment, and exploring the parts that make us whole, has shaped my ability to help you process feelings of grief, anxiety, anger, and depression. I enjoy working with a diverse population including young people who are exploring their own identities, orientations, and cultures. I am a licensed clinical social worker, member of the LGBTQ+ community, and a third generation Mexican-American. What an honor it is to hold space as individuals explore their feelings and create their own sense of self. Outside of the therapy office, you can find me reading a romance novel, tending to our huge garden; or, spending time with my young daughter, husband (who helps me see the big picture) and our two Shih Tzus.
