About Gabby

My training in couples work and trauma means I have the expertise you need and deserve when seeking therapy. But at the end of the day, you want to know you’re working with someone who “gets” what it means to be a real-life human struggling with all the demands of life right? I get it because I’m an actual wife, mom, entrepreneur, and daughter of a Law Enforcement Officer. I know that balancing family and marriage while trying to maintain sanity and a career is the opposite of easy. I also firmly believe in the healing power of humor and story-telling. So you won’t get a stuffy, intellectual in a suit when you work with me….you’ll get a real person.

For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?

Oh man, there's a powerful message out there that says couple's therapy is for people who are on the verge of divorce or for couple's who hate each other or for people who are really "sick". While partners facing those challenges will certainly benefit from therapy, I believe every couple can use some extra support from time to time. Therapy can be used for life transitions like the last kid moving away or buying a new house. It might be helpful for couples to re-learn how to communicate well or for those who wish to reignite true intimacy. In short, I would love to tell people who are hesitant about couple's therapy to trust themselves. You're looking for it for a reason, and that's really brave, so trust yourself. Just take the next step to get started...it might not be easy, but it'll be worth it.

What does a typical session with you tend to look like?

I am a fairly directive couple’s counselor. This means I’ll be actively involved in our sessions, but I’ll also ask you to communicate directly to your partner more than to me. For most couples, I utilize the Gottman Method, which allows us to focus on practicing effective communication skills in session so you feel prepared to utilize them right away at home. Couple’s sessions can be 60-minutes or 90-minutes, and we can meet either online via Google Meet or in person.
