Gabriela is recognized for her collaborative, solution-focused approach which enables her clients, including couples, to feel supported and empowered as they navigate the challenges they face. She has had specialized training in suicide prevention, trauma-informed care/nurtured heart approach, engaging and building relationships with adolescents, social media’s impact on mental health, art therapy, and creative interventions for working with challenging children. As a therapist, she caters her clinical approach to the needs of her clients, but heavily utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques while incorporating multicultural competence into her treatments.
