About Gabriele

Gabriele Rebbe is a licensed counselor who welcomes adults seeking practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, substance use, grief, self-esteem, career challenges, and other life transitions.

Background and approach

With 22 years of clinical experience she works to create a respectful, empathetic space where clients can explore goals, build skills, and pursue meaningful change. She integrates Internal Family Systems with client-centered listening and evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Gabriele emphasizes compassion, sensitivity, and a nonjudgmental stance, and she uses humor at times to ease tension and help people engage more comfortably in the work. Her background includes helping clients affected by trauma, abuse, and complex medical or caregiving challenges, as well as addressing issues like sleep, parenting, and addiction.

Licensed in Vermont (LCMHC) and Virginia (LPC), she draws on years of practice across diverse settings to shape individualized treatment plans that combine coaching, mentoring, and therapy. Prospective clients who are ready to pursue change will find a collaborative and pragmatic clinician focused on practical coping skills and longer-term growth.

How integrative approaches translate to online therapy

Gabriele commonly draws on Internal Family Systems, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients explore inner parts, build insight, and develop concrete skills. Internal Family Systems involves gently identifying and dialoguing with different internal parts to reduce internal conflict and promote self-leadership, which can be useful for anxiety, grief, and complex emotional patterns. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathy, acceptance, and collaborative understanding to create a safe context for change and personal growth. Cognitive behavioral therapy emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing new coping strategies to address symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process: the therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs with each client and then tailor techniques accordingly. That shared decision-making helps determine whether more insight-oriented work, skills training, or a combination will best support the client’s progress.

Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility around work and life schedules and making it easier to maintain continuity of care. These options allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing support, skills practice, and coaching from a distance while adapting session length and frequency to what works for each person.
