Helping You Reclaim Joy, One Mindful Breath and Genuine Laugh at a Time

Gabrielle Gonzalez, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Let’s get real for a minute:

Being a therapist isn't about listening to and fixing people's problems, it's about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that you've forgotten or buried deep under stress, anxiety, and all the "shoulds" we get wrapped up in.

I'm not here to be a blank slate kind of a therapist or a “let's fix this” kind of therapist. I'm here to help you feel seen, supported, and actually enjoy the process of becoming your most connected self. I also believe YOU hold the wisdom, and I’m the catalyst to your safety, so that you can tap into and flourish from your own inner light.

My story:

I wasn’t always as confident or grounded a person as I feel I am today (on my good days wink wink). Like many of the people I work with, I spent years battling self-doubt, overthinking every decision, and feeling stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing and perfectionism.

After hitting burnout one too many times and diving deep into somatic work and mindfulness, I realized there was a whole new way to live; a way where I could feel more in control without trying to control everything. Your girl here used to love control. But now, I love more than anything my ability to release it.

My therapy vibe:

I use a mix of somatic therapy, mindfulness, and parts work (kind of like therapy with a side of magic) to help you not only understand your patterns but actually shift them. We won’t just talk through your experiences, we’ll process them through the body. You’ll be amazed to see what deeper connection to the body opens up in the mind.

This isn’t about quick fixes or pushing away feelings; it’s really about learning how to listen to your body, unwind those old stories, and actually make space for the joy, confidence, and calm you’ve been craving. We’ll laugh, we’ll probably swear a little, and we’ll definitely dig into the deeper stuff. But I promise, it’ll be worth it.

I work with the helpers. The social workers, teachers, nurses, therapists, and healers who give so much of themselves but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or just plain done.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re constantly putting out fires while your own spark is fading, I’m here to help you reignite it. My clients often come to me wanting to find balance, feel more joy, and break free from those nagging feelings of “I’m not doing enough.” Spoiler alert: you are enough…

We may just need to work on redefining what being “good enough” and doing “enough” actually means for you; because current definitions might come from a place of wounding, not from your true essence.

When I’m not in therapist mode:

you can find me living the simple life; trying to keep my home tidy, taking afternoon walks at the park, parenting my toddler, and bustin’ a move whenever I can.

I’m hugging my hubby, cuddling my toddler and making my own delicious collagen double shot lattes at home in the mornings.

I love spending time outdoors, planning adventures and dancing to songs in the car like it’s 2010. You might catch me belting it out to literally every song from Frozen and Frozen 2, and you’ll definitely catch me twerkin’ a little on the gram.

If this sounds like the kind of vibe you want in therapy, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s work together to get you feeling more grounded, more confident, and a whole lot more you.
