Gabriele Rebbe, LPC, LCMHC

Gabriele Rebbe is a licensed counselor with 22 years of professional experience, holding licensure as an LPC and an LCMHC. LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor and LCMHC stands for Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - both indicate advanced training in counseling and clinical practice. She holds licenses in Vermont and Virginia and has worked across a variety of clinical and community settings.

Her practice focuses on a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, parenting and career issues, substance use, and efforts to make lifestyle changes that support overall wellness. She also has experience supporting people who have experienced physical and emotional abuse and who present with trauma-related symptoms, and she brings that background to work with grief, sleep difficulties, addictions, and stress related to caregiving and life transitions.

Gabriele builds rapport by creating a non-judgmental, respectful atmosphere where clients feel seen and understood. She often uses compassionate humor to ease tension and to help clients engage in difficult conversations. Her clinical approach blends cognitive-behavioral and dialectical skills with feminist perspectives, mentoring, and coaching, and she adapts dialogue and treatment plans to fit each person’s unique needs.

Seeking change takes courage, and Gabriele offers supportive, empowering guidance for those ready to take that next step toward a more satisfying life. She looks forward to working with individuals who want practical strategies and collaborative care.

Therapeutic approaches for online growth and coping

Gabriele integrates client-centered work that focuses on understanding each person’s perspective and building a trusting, collaborative relationship. This approach emphasizes empathy and support to help clients explore values, goals, and personal strengths.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and problem-focused, and it can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are another component of her practice, offering tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT strategies can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and coping with life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabriele works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress unfolds.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexible access to care, allowing clients to fit therapy into busy schedules and connect from familiar settings. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes and to practice skills between sessions with ongoing support from a licensed professional.
