About Gabrielle

Gabrielle Gatto is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, reduce anxiety, and navigate significant life transitions, bringing a compassionate and respectful stance to each interaction.

Background and approach

Gabrielle emphasizes individualized care, shaping conversations and evidence-informed plans to match each person's specific circumstances and goals. Her work also addresses compassion fatigue, communication challenges, and issues commonly experienced by women, using practical strategies to build coping skills and clarify priorities.

Gabrielle outlines what to expect in an initial session, including administrative details and time to answer questions, then collaborates with clients to set realistic goals and identify barriers. When a client's needs exceed her scope, she seeks appropriate referrals to ensure clients receive the level of care they require.

She encourages openness about policies and procedures to support a productive therapeutic process.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Gabrielle integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her online practice to provide structured, practical support. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and stress, often using skill-building exercises and behavioral experiments. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult internal experiences while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that align with those values, which can help with coping during life transitions and compassion fatigue.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabrielle will work with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds and recommending alternatives or referrals when a different level of care is more appropriate.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity when in-person visits are difficult, while allowing licensed professionals to provide consistent, evidence-informed support tailored to each person's situation.
