Hi! I am Christina Doss- Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) specializing- in providing psychotherapy and medication management to adults of all ages to help navigate Anxiety, ADHD - ADD, depression, burnout, hormonal - changes, perimenopause, menopause and postpartum (PPD). In addition, I help with family and relationship issues and conflicts.

If you are feeling mentally exhausted, suffer from brain fog, struggling to focus, or finding it difficult to keep up with task and demands of work, school, relationships, parenting, or everyday responsibilities, you are not alone.

Many women and men come to treatment during seasons of transition, whether they are navigating career changes, academic pressures, relationship or marriage concerns, divorce, parenting stress, grief, health challenges, or adjusting to a new stage of life.

Others may be struggling with executive dysfunction, ADHD, focus and concentration difficulties, organization, organize thoughts, motivation, manage time, or regulate emotions and feeling overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life.

Many of my clients experience anxiety, depression, seasonal depression and feel disconnected from the life they want to create, and my goal is to help you "Grow and Glow" and together create the best life possible.

Together, we will look at the whole picture—not just symptoms, but also your relationships, strengths, stressors, and goals—to create a plan that fits your unique needs.As an independent provider, I believe meaningful mental health care begins with feeling heard. My goal is for every patient to feel seen, understood, and supported.

I believe hope, guidance, and the right support can make a powerful difference. My role is to walk alongside you, help clear the path forward, provide practical tools, and empower you to move toward the life you want to create. You don't have to do it alone.

Gabrielle Gallet De St. Aurin

Gabrielle Gallet De St. Aurin

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • North Olmsted, OH


When we live in spaces of meeting other people’s expectations, how can we ever discover who we authentically are? My role as a therapist is to create a space where you are able to be authentically yourself. We are not simple and isolated beings. We are influenced and impacted by various different relationships and experiences throughout our lives. There is no road map on how to be. So, let’s create it together.

I am a trauma informed Independent Couple and Family Therapist, which allows me to hold space and acknowledge the multitude of different factors that influence a person or couple. I received my Master's from Appalachian State University in Marriage and Family Therapy with a certificate of Multicultural Counseling.

As a queer, neurodiverse, 2nd generation Martinican American, I understand the importance of providing culturally responsive and affirming care. I believe that therapy deserves a person - centered approach putting emphasis on the need for collaboration and consent throughout the whole experience. Transparency and honesty are priorities for me as a therapist to ensure there is an ability to create trust and understanding from the start of services.

Being neurodiverse, it is important for my clients to understand that I work with your brain rather than against it. Allowing for multiple possibilities and ways to navigate difficult experiences to ensure that what is being explored is supportive, inclusive and accessible to all of my clients without the experience of shame and challenges internalized ableism.

Clients that are most successful are willing to be challenged, self-reflect, being willing to try something new and learn to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. I feel privileged to be able to be part of your journey.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Toledo, OH

Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Toledo starts with looking for identity-affirming care. A strong match may include a therapist who lists affirmative therapy, gender-diverse experience, or training related to transgender and gender-expansive care. You may also want support with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, family dynamics, or life transitions. Read each therapist’s profile for signs that their training, listed specialties, and approach match what you want from counseling in Toledo, Ohio.

Toledo has a focused mental health care market, so the right local fit may depend on more than specialty alone. Virtual therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still letting you work with a licensed therapist in Ohio. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their work with LGBTQIA+ people. Bios that clearly mention LGBTQIA+ populations, transgender care, communication style, and therapy approach can help you narrow the search before booking.

Therapy in Toledo can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and compare options for therapy in Toledo, Ohio. You can browse profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
