Getting to know Gabriele Gutierrez

I have over 20 years of counseling experience working with diverse individuals, from young children to seniors. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, transitions, self-destructive behaviors, and codependency, among others, so that you can overcome the blocks that keep you from living the life you deserve. I use an integrated and collaborative approach designed to meet the unique needs of each individual while establishing a safe environment conducive to achieving goals and moving forward. I hold a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide effective, compassionate care. I believe that true change happens when people are given the support they need to draw upon their own strengths and realize their full potential. I am very passionate about the work I do, compassionate, and believe that with dedication and commitment, you can live the fulfilling life you know is awaiting you. A few comments former clients have shared about me and our work together include: “I've worked with a number of therapists before, but you are the only one that I felt truly cared.” “I can't believe that after 8 years of depression and PTSD, I actually feel great after only 6 months! If you would have asked me if this were possible a couple of years ago, I would have said absolutely not!” I have worked with both short-term and long-term interventions and in diverse settings. My goal is your goal, and together, you can achieve what you may have thought-or think-is unachievable. It is possible not only to overcome obstacles but to thrive and live a happy life.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am completely invested in the people with whom I work. After a session, you can definitely expect to feel supported and cared for, as well as learn and/or discover something. As we continue, you will experience small subtle changes, which over time, contribute to feeling happier through the tools you've learned as well as the work you do. I'm very proactive with clients and offer homework, and will discuss small goals for reaching larger ones so we can make true progress towards what you want from therapy. I will also sometimes utilize breathing techniques, as well as meditation, if that's something you're comfortable with. Therapy is all about you and it works. It requires patience, time, and effort, and with this, you can truly experience change.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
