*** Gabrielle is accepting new patients ***

Hi, my name is Gabrielle and I’m a registered Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC12994) under supervision by Dr. Kristin Francis (PSY29156).

I am a therapist located in San Diego and use evidence-based practices to work with you wherever you are as you take this important step in working on your mental health. As a therapist, my approach is person-centered, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I strive to create a calm environment and strongly believe that you are the expert on yourself, with me as a guide to offer support and tools that can help you thrive.

I will work with you to develop therapeutic goals and treatment plans drawing on of methods using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness skills, among others. I welcome and encourage you to ask questions and to feel open to expressing how the process is going as we work together.

My clinical training and experience as a therapist includes working with adults from diverse backgrounds with a range of issues, including acute mental illness, depression,anxiety, trauma, substance use, life transitions, self-esteem, relational issues, and doing crisis intervention work.

I received my Master’s from Bastyr University, with a concentration in health counseling. I also have a research background and completed a thesis exploring the connection between emotion regulation skills and anxiety. I view mental health as multi-layered and like to address it from a holistic perspective.

I am available to work with adults for individual in-person and telehealth sessions Wednesday through Friday. I look forward to working together!
