Hi there, I'm Gabriela! Hello! My name is Gabriela Montes, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. My goal is to come alongside my clients as they face challenges, ensuring they feel supported and empowered to make progress and start feeling better.

I have experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused, Client-Centered, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness-Based Therapy. Overall, my goal is to meet the unique needs of each individual and provide a safe space for processing and healing. My focus In my experience, my style and approach work well with adults facing life’s challenges. These challenges often present as anxiety, depression, stress, difficult life transitions, family conflict, parenting challenges, and self-esteem issues. I aim to explore and collaborate with each client to develop a plan tailored specifically to their therapy needs. My communication style My communication style is empathetic, compassionate, warm, and calm. I strive to create an environment where each client feels comfortable, heard, and respected during our sessions. I provide a safe space to listen and offer feedback without judgment. My first session with you During our first session, I will listen without judgment and provide any valuable information you may need to begin your therapy journey.
