    About Gabriella

    Gabriella Benoit is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She practices in Florida and speaks English. Gabriella encourages a straightforward, nonjudgmental approach so people can talk openly about what feels hard right now.

    She focuses on building a calm space where clients can sort through emotions and practical problems. Sessions emphasize listening first, then working together to set small, realistic steps toward change. Gabriella uses tools from Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and keep momentum.

    Her work also draws on client-centered therapy to make sure each person’s goals shape the process. Cognitive behavioral strategies are used to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Mindfulness techniques and solution-focused ideas are added when they fit a person’s needs and preferences.

    Gabriella has experience supporting people facing end-of-life issues and hospice-related concerns, helping them and their loved ones manage emotions and decisions. She aims to make each session practical and manageable, with clear next steps clients can try between meetings.

    To begin, Gabriella asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and international clients are welcome.

  2. How Gabriella’s approaches work in online therapy

    Gabriella uses Motivational Interviewing to help people uncover their own reasons for change and boost commitment to goals. This approach is conversational and collaborative, and it often helps when someone feels stuck or lacks motivation.

    She also draws on client-centered therapy, which means sessions begin by listening closely and letting a person’s goals steer the work. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes in behavior that can reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

    Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gabriella will work together with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust methods as needs change so therapy stays useful and relevant.

    The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce commuting time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt Motivational Interviewing, client-centered listening, and CBT techniques to remote sessions so work continues even when in-person visits are not possible.
