About My Practice
Gabi (she/her/hers) uses an approach to therapy based on compassion, empathy, and integration. She combines classic psychodynamic techniques with approaches from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Polyvagal Theory.
Gabi's methodology is informed by social work's tenet that we are constantly being both acted upon by our environment and acting upon our environment. Gabi believes in the wisdom of the body, how our bodies hold trauma, and how to listen when our bodies communicate. She helps clients get to know their emotional landscapes better, and how to choose effective behaviors in response to those emotions. Last, Gabi assists clients in uncovering their own needs and desires, and advocating for themselves from a place of groundedness and self-knowledge.
