About Gabrielle

Gabrielle Panzo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut with five years of experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, ADHD, addiction concerns, and codependency. Sessions focus on understanding what feels overwhelming and practical steps to change patterns that cause repeated strain.

Gabrielle uses a mix of approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. In conversation she helps people notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and reflect on values that matter. She tends to keep sessions straightforward and focused on what a person wants to address next.

Clients can expect a collaborative style that emphasizes honest conversation and concrete skills. Gabrielle listens for patterns in relationships and daily life that may be linked to stress, low self-esteem, or trouble setting boundaries. She works with people facing trauma, grief, parenting strain, workplace pressure, and intimacy-related concerns.

She also supports people dealing with attachment questions, autism and Asperger syndrome, kinky or alternative sexual cultures, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and recovery from domestic violence. Gabrielle integrates mindfulness and emotion-focused work when clients need ways to manage strong feelings in the moment.

Outside of clinical work she reads, cooks, follows baseball, and cares for a dog. To begin, the site process asks visitors to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with a person’s values. It can help when people want to stop being driven by anxiety or avoidant habits and instead act in ways that feel meaningful.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and introduces practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and everyday coping skills.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and awareness practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment noticing. This can support people who experience intense emotions or have trouble settling their minds.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation helps decide which methods to emphasize and how to pace sessions together.

Confirm specific session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some clients prefer sessions that do not require video for lower bandwidth or use brief phone check-ins during a workday; ask about current options when arranging the first session.
