Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Gabriella uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships and attachment patterns shape current interpersonal dynamics and emotional responses. This approach can be useful for people who struggle with trust, intimacy, abandonment concerns, or attachment-related stress.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to change them. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related challenges where concrete coping strategies are desired.

Mindfulness Therapy is another tool Gabriella offers, teaching present-moment awareness and self-compassion skills that support emotion regulation and reduce reactivity. It pairs well with other approaches when clients want to build calm and clarity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Gabriella works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors care over time rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy with Gabriella is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional and to continue work even when life circumstances change.
