About Mallory
LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in Indiana with 7 years of clinical experience, Mallory Gakpo focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulty, grief, depression, LGBT concerns, family issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and ADHD.
Mallory writes plainly and works collaboratively. She helps people talk through addictive behaviors and the stress that comes with them. She addresses relationship problems and grief with clear, practical steps. Sessions center on identifying patterns and testing real-life changes between meetings.
Her background includes substantial work in substance abuse and addiction settings. That experience shapes how she looks at cravings, relapse risk, and the social pressures that make recovery hard. Mallory also draws on her personal experience with trauma to connect practical coping with daily demands.
In sessions she listens for what’s getting in the way of a client’s goals and then experiments with small changes. Conversations cover thoughts, behaviors, and routine fixes that can reduce anxiety or lift mood. Homework is straightforward and focused on real situations clients face.
Mallory helps people build skills for handling tough moments and moving forward after loss or setbacks. She supports clients in sorting through relationship patterns and improving self-esteem. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats to match practical needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work
Two evidence-based techniques she relies on are behavioral skills training and problem-focused work. Behavioral skills training breaks down goals into small, repeatable actions such as coping steps for cravings, anxiety management practices, or routines to support mood. Problem-focused work narrows sessions to current obstacles and tests practical solutions the client can try between meetings.Mallory also incorporates grief-informed support that helps people name losses, track emotional reactions, and try manageable ways to remember or adjust to change. That approach is useful for people dealing with bereavement, life transitions, or layered losses tied to addiction and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review what has helped you before, listen to your goals, and jointly decide which techniques to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are expected as needs shift.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow quicker check-ins when problems flare, and remove travel time. Different formats can also support shorter focused check-ins or longer therapeutic conversations depending on what a client needs.
