Gabriela is bilingual and available to support both English and Spanish speaking children & families. In her work with children, Gabriela focuses primarily on children ages 2-10yrs old. To guide her clinical work she draws from an attachment-focused lens, mindfulness, play therapy, interpersonal neurobiology and family system theory. She has experience supporting children and families navigating a wide range of challenges including behavioral concerns, significant life changes, experiences of trauma, divorce, involvement in the child welfare system, concerns of anxiety and/or depression, support for children who are neurodiverse, and gender identity exploration.

Gabriela believes strongly in the power of relationships and as such strives to build respectful, safe, attuned connections with each of her clients. Taking a collaborative approach to her therapeutic work, she truly values her clients’ perspectives, and views them as the experts while she walks beside them facilitating their journey. A parent herself, Gabriela has an intimate appreciation for the beautiful, messy, and often exasperating realties of caregiving. With this perspective in mind, she strives to create a therapeutic space where both children and adults feel heard and seen.
