MEET YOUR THERAPIST
The Heart Behind Pearl Therapy
Welcome! Let me introduce myself, my name is Gabrielle and I am the founder of Pearl Therapy. My path to becoming a therapist was paved by witnessing the transformative power of healing in my own life. The name pearl represents that transformation. Today, my mission is simple: to help you experience that same reclamation of self.
I am deeply passionate about supporting women who are ready to heal from trauma and create a life that feels authentic. Many of my clients are navigating the long-term impact of past experiences while managing the daily pressures of relationships and expectations. If you are tired of just surviving and want to feel grounded, confident, and truly connected to yourself, you are in the right place.
Clinical Foundation
I have served in mental health since 2018 as a therapist, supervisor, and clinical director. I've had the opportunity to help both clients and therapists, as well as shape clinical programming. I specialize in DBT, CBT, trauma-focused care, and mindfulness-based approaches. My style is collaborative and compassionate, focused on building insight and regulating emotions to create lasting change.
