Getting to know Gabrielle Richards

I’m a therapist with specialized experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through life’s emotional and behavioral challenges. My integrative approach draws from psychodynamic theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, tailored to meet each client’s unique needs and goals. I’m committed to creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood. Whether you’re a young person struggling with anxiety, mood, or identity issues, or an adult navigating grief, stress, or major life transitions, I work collaboratively to help you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create lasting, meaningful change. Together, we’ll focus not only on what’s difficult but on what’s possible.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker experienced in supporting adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life changes, relationship issues, self-regulation, and stress. My therapy is warm, collaborative, and client-focused, creating a safe space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy to help clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and past experiences are interconnected. CBT helps recognize unhelpful thoughts, develop coping skills, and manage symptoms. Each treatment is personalized to the client’s needs and goals, fostering growth, understanding, and resilience. I also offer Christian counseling that incorporates faith, spirituality, and biblical principles in a respectful, supportive way aligned with the client’s beliefs.
