How Gabrielle’s Approaches Work Online

Gabrielle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT breaks problems into clear steps and gives practical tools for anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify personal values and build small actions toward them. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult feelings while committing to meaningful behavior changes that fit a person’s life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gabrielle will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts pace and techniques as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be easier on low bandwidth days or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging work well for quick check-ins, shorter updates, or when someone needs flexible timing during a busy day.
