How Gabriella works
Gabriella draws on straightforward strategies to build coping skills and increase motivation.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Gabriella uses client-centered therapy to prioritize each person's goals and perspectives. That approach means sessions begin with listening and respect, then move toward what the individual says they want to change or understand better.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and practical problem solving.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabriella will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, try techniques together, and adjust the plan based on what works best over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you see facial cues and have a face-to-face conversation, while phone calls can be simpler if bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can be used for quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
