About Gabriela
LCSW in Texas and Virginia with 6 years of experience, Gabriela Loera focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns as well as parenting and trauma. She works with people experiencing depression, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and Gabriela uses several talk-therapy approaches to help clients address immediate problems and longer-standing patterns.
Gabriela uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's priorities and strengths. She incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety or depression. She also draws on Psychodynamic ideas to look at how past relationships and family history shape current feelings and reactions.
Her style is collaborative and direct. Conversations focus on practical steps and understanding how current problems developed. Gabriela aims to help people make changes that fit their daily routines and responsibilities, including parenting duties and work demands.
She has worked with issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family concerns, and family of origin problems. Gabriela also supports people facing addiction, immigration challenges, postpartum concerns, aging and geriatric issues, and pregnancy and childbirth adjustments.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and strengths. The therapist follows what the person brings to sessions and helps them decide next steps. This approach is useful for people who want a collaborative style and direct attention to their priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behavior. In short practical exercises, clients learn to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gabriela will talk with each person about goals, past experience with therapy, and what feels most useful. Together they choose methods and adjust them over time based on progress and preferences.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone use audio-only or lower-bandwidth options when that better fits a day or location. Discuss format preferences when completing the matching questionnaire so the first session can be scheduled to match practical needs.
