Gabrielle is a warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed therapist-in-training who strives to meet patients with empathy, curiosity, and care. Her therapeutic style is rooted in a strengths-based and relational approach, with a focus on creating a safe, affirming space for individuals to explore their identities, experiences, and goals.

She takes an integrative, client-centered approach and draws from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic therapy.
