“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom" (Anais Nin). You know when it's time to make a change - whether the struggle is depression, anxiety, past trauma, or perhaps a painful relationship - there comes a tipping point when you are ready to make that first step toward hope.

I believe each person is wholly and wonderfully unique: from strengths, values, and identities to needs, questions, and challenges. These parts of who we are can ebb and flow, grow or evolve with each new chapter of our lives. Sometimes, these changes can be uncomfortable, frightening, or overwhelming. Seeking therapy that supports all that you are, wherever you are in your life story, is powerful. I am honored to share this time with you.

We have all experienced various levels of loss, harm or violation in our lives and this will have an effect on us. Are you experiencing disordered eating, unwanted sexual behavior, depression, anxiety, anger or turning to substances for relief? Often people feel a pain inside they are unable to understand or articulate. Perhaps you're frustrated and beginning to feel hopeless or helpless to change. Transformation and change is possible but it is a process, not an event. Research shows that finding the right "fit" in a therapist is one of the most important factors in having a transformative experience in therapy.

Therapy is not a one size fits all endeavor. I am a strong believer that we are all in fact our own best experts. It might mean (re) discovering what brings us joy, fulfillment, even excitement. Discussing your own individual, unique journey without judgement, bias, coercion, or assumption can be a way to ensure you feel you are on the path YOU are consciously choosing. I'm here to support you in YOUR goals. I think of my role first and foremost as an ally. Utilizing my experience, expertise, education, & empathy to best support you in your own healing journey. Our past, while vital to our sense of self, does not have to define us.

We are all born with dreams and a purpose to fulfill. Sometimes those dreams are muted or tossed aside in the face of grief, challenges or simply the effort to survive. There are times when each of us will face challenges that seem beyond us. The good news is, you do not have to do it alone. Let me help you remember your true identity and call out the strength within that you may not be able to see. You are unique, resilient and made for the journey in which you find yourself.

You have the innate ability to heal emotionally and physically. Natural healing and vitality take place when in a state of ease and regulation. Accumulated stress and trauma block this natural capacity to heal. You may notice that you've been able to rebound from difficulty or illness in the past when you’ve had the proper support and resources. If you’re looking to restore vitality, or feel it for the first time, it’s possible, and Somatic Experiencing teaches you to gently resolve trauma by tracking your experience and coming into self-regulation.

I have specialized in the treatment of trauma related problems and associated anxiety, anxiety disorders (panic, OCD, general anxiety), behavioral issues, and depression. I believe all people come equipped with the strength and internal resources necessary to heal. We are more than the pain that afflicts us or the symptoms that make our lives difficult. Helping those afflicted by trauma, anxiety, and depression is my passion. My goal is to aid in finding life's balance, to help others regain a sense of hope, and return from the past to find fulfillment in their present.

Gabbie will meet you where you’re at with warmth and utilize meaningful research and evidence-based practices to give you skills to identify and overcome your obstacles.

You don't know who you are or even who you want to be. You're constantly holding onto shame and guilt and never feel good enough. Sometimes you wonder if people in your life would care about you if they knew who you really were... it's exhausting. You don't feel truly close to anyone in your life. Relationships, friendships, family, it's distant. Feeling so alone makes you quick to anger because of you feel stuck in it. Are you wondering why life is always like this and if it will ever change?
