Gabriele Rebbe, LPC, LCMHC

Gabriele Rebbe is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, and life transitions. She speaks English and German and brings 22 years of practice to conversations about parenting, relationships, career shifts, grief, and self-esteem.

She aims to make clients feel comfortable and understood. She listens without judgment and uses warmth and sometimes gentle humor to ease tension. Her style is practical and down-to-earth so people can talk about hard things without added pressure.

Gabriele often combines cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered and dialectical skills to meet each person's needs. That means she helps people notice patterns of thinking, try small behavior changes, and learn skills to manage big emotions. She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support readiness for change.

Her background includes many settings where she worked with people affected by trauma, abuse, and chronic challenges. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's situation rather than following a one-size-fits-all script. Coaching elements are used when someone wants concrete steps toward goals like wellness or career change.

People who choose Gabriele can expect respectful, practical sessions focused on clear steps and coping strategies. She encourages small experiments and real-world practice between meetings. If someone is ready to take a first step toward change, she offers steady support and guidance.

How CBT, Client-Centered Work, and DBT Skills Translate Online

Gabriele draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people identify thoughts that affect mood and behavior, and to test small changes that make daily life easier. CBT techniques tend to focus on concrete steps and short experiments that work well in video or text sessions.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening, respect, and collaboration so clients set their own goals. This approach supports people who need empathetic space to sort feelings and decide next steps. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when strong emotions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabriele will work with each person to combine methods that match their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring to sessions. She adjusts pacing and tools as progress unfolds so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online therapy here can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and skills practice, phone can be a simpler check-in with lower bandwidth, and chat or text can fit brief updates or coaching-style support between meetings. These formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels while keeping the focus on practical strategies and skill building.
