Getting to know Gabriela Lima

Hi there, I'm Gabriela! Hello, my name is Gabriela Lima, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I am passionate about helping others process and understand the life transitions and obstacles they often face. I've worked with adults by helping them navigate and process complex situations that often leave them feeling anxious, depressed, and even exhausted. My approach My approach is holistic, trauma-informed, and person-centered. I tend to use the following modalities: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. My focus In my 7 years of experience, I've worked with adults who've faced complex issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, childhood trauma, and stress. My communication style I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to feel validated and supported. I am easygoing and calm. My journey to mental healthcare I've always had the heart to support others during their most vulnerable moments. Being genuine and considerate, my goal is to support my clients in processing, healing, and growing. Sometimes we don't have control over what happens, but we can gain the tools to learn to cope and move forward. My goals for you My approach is trauma-focused and person-centered, always keeping in mind what the client feels comfortable exploring. My first session with you In our first session, we'll review the process, expectations, get to know one another, and set goals as appropriate.
