Therapist

In-person • Vacaville, CA


Are you tired of feeling stuck in the same cycles of anxiety, depression, or conflict that keep you from feeling truly present in your life? I help individuals and couples who are ready for change—whether you're navigating mood disorders, relationship struggles, or intense family issues. With a strong background in anger management and addressing complex topics like sexual disorders, I offer a safe, confidential space to work through challenges. As a parent and a grandmother, and having served as a child custody mediator, I bring a wealth of real-world experience to issues like co-parenting and visitation planning. I also specialize in empowering women who are survivors of domestic violence, helping you move from a place of survival to one of strength and stability. Let's work together to create the sustainable change you deserve.

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been practicing since 2017. I’ve worked with children, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, grief, family challenges, substance use, and co-occurring mental health conditions. I've supported people from many different backgrounds and at different stages of life.

I have specialized training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International and hold a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C). I especially enjoy working with women and families through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, grief and loss, and major life changes.

I think of myself less as someone who has all the answers and more as a companion on your journey. Therapy can be a new, exciting, and sometimes scary journey and I’m happy to be your travel buddy along the way.

Therapist

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in the same relationship cycles, disconnected with others or yourself, or unsure what to do next. Maybe you are navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or a difficult season in your life and simply need a space where you don't have to have it all together or figure it out alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel heard, be seen, and begin making sense of what you have been experiencing.

I have experiencing working with teens, young adults, families, and couples using attachment-based approaches, meeting each person with curiosity, compassion, and free of judgment.

You don't have to have everything figured out, you just have to be willing to take the first step.

Hi there! My name is Abrianna Gift and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with five years of experience and I would love to chat with you to see if we would be a good fit.
