Gabrielle Burholt, LPC

Gabrielle Burholt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia who blends counseling and coaching to support people through life transitions, loss, stress, and relationship challenges. She brings a background in liberal arts and music education, along with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, to a practice that values curiosity, respect, and a strengths-based perspective. Gabrielle also holds an Associate Certified Coach credential through the International Coach Federation and a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor credential, reflecting training in both coaching skills and substance use treatment.

Her work centers on the individual - honoring each person’s values, goals, and unique story while helping them identify internal resources and practical steps forward. She listens closely, reflects observations back, and asks targeted questions designed to help clients explore options, uncover motivation, and create a meaningful vision for change. Gabrielle emphasizes clarifying what matters most to guide goal-setting and foster sustainable movement toward a life that feels more aligned and energized.

Drawing on approaches that promote acceptance, awareness, and client-led discovery, she supports people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, relationship and family issues, parenting and caregiving stress, low self-esteem, career questions, and related concerns. Gabrielle frames therapy as a collaborative process and offers coaching-informed strategies alongside clinical counseling to help clients build practical skills and lasting insight.

Therapeutic approaches for effective online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites clients to clarify personal values and take committed action toward those values while learning ways to be present with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often helpful for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions where finding purpose and motivation matters. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and follows the client’s lead, helping people explore their feelings and discover solutions that fit their own goals. Motivational Interviewing uses reflective conversation to strengthen a person’s own motivation for change and is useful for addressing ambivalence around habits, addictions, and lifestyle shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gabrielle collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress and insight develop. This shared decision-making helps clients feel more engaged and invested in their work.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging - so clients can access support from home, during work breaks, or while managing caregiving and other responsibilities. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit therapeutic work into a busy life.
