Online support
Emotion, attachment, and practical work online
Gabrielle often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name the feelings that drive patterns in relationships and daily life. EFT focuses on shifting emotional responses so people can feel and respond differently to old triggers.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds affect current relationships and behavior. That approach helps people see repeating patterns and try new ways of connecting. Gabrielle pairs these with Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere where the client leads the pace and goals.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Gabrielle will discuss options and collaborate on a plan that fits each person's goals, needs, and comfort level. The approach can shift as progress is made or new issues arise.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and deeper conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text supports quick check-ins and ongoing coaching, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and varied schedules.
