“Gabriella helped me develop a much better understanding of my anxiety and the ways it affected me emotionally and physically. The combination of therapeutic conversation, mindfulness, and body-based practices gave me tools I could actually use outside of therapy.”

“Gabriella made therapy feel like a collaborative relationship. She never imposed her perspective on me and instead helped me explore my own experiences with curiosity. I felt safe enough to have difficult conversations and work through things at my own pace.”
