I'm Gabrielle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State. Since I graduated from Rhode Island College's Master of Social Work program in 2010, a majority of my work experience has been gained in the practice areas of HIV/AIDS and mental health. In particular I have focused my work on oppressed communities, including LGBTQ folks (especially men who have sex with men and transgender women), people of color, immigrants, and patients who are limited English speakers. Much of my experience has been in the outpatient mental health setting, where I have amassed years of practice treating trauma, mood disorders, and anxiety. Though I'm trained as a generalist social worker and am always aware of the environment and its effects on my patients, I have specific training in positive psychology, cognitive techniques, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. If you are open to longer-term therapy, I'm a big believer that building a relationship between patient and therapist is an investment worth making, and often leads to greater change for the patient.

I practice from a therapeutic approach which includes kindness, building trust and a warm relationship with my clients. I practice's with intention and provides the quality care that everyone should receive. I facilitates a person-centered non-judgmental approach that will enable clients to access their own abilities and achieve sustainable change. I identify as a first generation Muslim Arab American. I specialize providing therapy for women who are Arab/ South Asian. I have experience MENA, immigrants or communities of various backgrounds, people with disabilities who may be struggling with relationship issues. I also have experience working with people who are privileged but also feel a sense of exclusion from their family and communities. I focus on processing intergenerational trauma and intersectional discrimination. My nuanced background and experience has helped me appreciate diversity which enables me to create a safe space for a positive experience in therapy. The modelaties I use is cognitive-based therapy, strength-based, trauma focused. My clients can always take away with conflict-resolution techniques, feeling a sense of empowerment and control after our sessions.

As a counselor I seek to empower people to be set free of limitations in their lives caused by fear, anxiety and doubt. My therapy approach includes challenging, comforting, and providing necessary tools for freedom to take place in your life. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (New York). I have been a licensed counselor for ten years and a pastor for 40+ years. Challenges to life such as addictions, eating disorders and relational difficulties are often related to relational trauma. I can help you to safely explore your family of origin in order to discover any triggers that might be the cause of the problem(s) you are facing. My counseling style encompasses an integrative approach that is person-centered and strength-based with specialization in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Internal Family Systems and Christian Counseling. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. Losing someone to physical death is extremely difficult. However, that is not the only type of loss we must learn to cope. There are various ambiguous losses such as a loss of your job, adult children moving from home, a spouse facing medical challenges such as dementia, and many other similar situations. If that describes you, I can help! With regards to my communication style, I am straight forward and direct. My goal is to assist you in developing an effective plan to resolve the challenges you are facing to cope with various life challenges.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Doctorate in Social Work. My specialties include treatment of problems related to foster care, adoption, and family and other interpersonal relationships, issues with attachment, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have extensive experience working with individuals and families experiencing issues related to acute and chronic life stressors. Treatment approaches used are integrative and include cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and solution-focused theories. My goal in using these approaches is to help understand your unique life experiences and how they have led to deficit-based feelings, emotions, and behaviors. Acknowledging the need to change is easy but following through is often very difficult. Finding the right person to help you through your journey can be draining but important in successfully accomplishing your goals. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable to another person is scary, but it is a strength that aids in the healing process. Let me be your partner as you journey towards living the life you deserve.
