Hello! After completing clinical social work studies at Saint Louis University's College of Public Health and Social Justice in 2014 I practiced community mental health in hospice and adult outpatient throughout Monmouth County, NJ till 2022. During this time I became EMDRIA certified (2020), and have continued to grow in exposure with the grief process. Seeing the inextricable link between chronic illness and trauma has fueled my commitment to seek diverse tools for assisting clients while they are living.
Hello and welcome! I have been assisting clients with navigating some of the most difficult stages of life. I have provided services with clients between the ages of 4 and 96. I specialize in aging, grief/loss and life transitions.
I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing challenges in relationships (such as w/ a partner, friends, family or coworkers); LGBTQIA+ clients; and clients who are moving through life changes or transitions. Whether you’re navigating emerging adulthood and "adulting" for the first time, redefining a relationship, grieving a loss, questioning your sexuality, coming out, adjusting to an empty nest, exploring spirituality, or learning how to show up in life as your true authentic self, I am here to walk beside you on your journey!
Hi, I’m a licensed clinician committed to creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation challenges, trauma, life transitions, and relationship concerns. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, integrating evidence-based practices including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed approaches, while also providing clinical and forensic evaluation services. My goal is to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered in their growth.
Hi, I'm Gabriell! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we'll explore the challenges you're facing and develop practical strategies to help you feel more confident and achieve your goals. Outside of work, I'm a mom who enjoys spending time with my family, staying active, relaxing at the beach, and reading whenever I get the chance. I also have a cream mini dachshund named Honey, who may occasionally make an appearance during our virtual sessions!
I'm a therapist with a commitment to supporting you and your mental and emotional well-being. I have experience working with clients going through crisis, life transitions, relationship struggles, and family discord. I am certified in Creative Arts Therapy and Disaster and Collective Trauma Therapy.
I believe feelings aren't obstacles to manage they're signals worth understanding. For over five years, I've worked alongside people who are quietly exhausted: carrying anxiety, sitting with grief, untangling patterns in their relationships, or navigating a life that no longer fits who they're becoming. My clients often describe our sessions as the first place they've felt truly heard without needing to perform strength or explain away their emotions. I work with individuals and couples across New York, New Jersey, and Florida via telehealth, with evening, morning, and weekend availability, so quality care doesn't have to be another thing to schedule around. I accept Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Anthem, Empire, and other major plans. You don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out we can start exactly where you are.
