Am I a gooD fit?

I know how hard it can be to find a therapist that's a good match. Fill out this form, and I will contact you to set up a FREE 15 minute phone consultation to see if I am a good fit for you!

What to expect for the consultation

This is an opportunity for you to interview me! Share some of your current challenges, what brings you to therapy, and how you’re hoping I will be able to help. I encourage you to ask any questions you might have and share any concerns about beginning a therapeutic relationship. At the end of our call, if you feel that I’m a good fit for your needs, we will book an intake session and I will send you a link to clinic policies and consent forms.

What to expect at The first session

For the first 5-10 minutes we will review informed consent policies and how I run my practice, and ensure all of your questions and concerns are addressed! The rest of session is spent gathering background information on different areas of your life, getting to know you better, and for you to continue feeling out if I’m still the right therapist for you!

follow up sessions

This is where the work begins. We will work together to uncover where you would like to start, and from there we follow whatever comes up. Depending on what you prefer, I can take on a more structured approach, let you do most of the talking, or a balance of each. Usually, after the first couple of sessions my clients feel more comfortable and get into a groove that works for them.

 

As much as I’d love to work with clients from many locations, I am only Licensed in the state of Wisconsin and registered as an out-of-state Telehealth Provider in Florida. I can only provide services to clients located in Wisconsin and Florida at the time of service.

*Please note that Medicaid holders cannot pay out of pocket for services as there may be a risk of losing coverage. For this reason, Gabrielle cannot work with clients who carry Medicaid.

****WAIT LIST FOR NEW CLIENTS****

I currently have a wait list for new clients. Wait time is approximately 3-5 months. If you would like to work with me and are comfortable waiting, please submit the form below.

Getting Connected

I am often in and out of sessions throughout the day and may miss your call. Please leave a voicemail or send me an e-mail and I will get back to you within 1-2 business days.

Crisis Resources

I’m so glad you are reaching out for help! I do not provide crisis care, but I am happy to connect you to resources. If you are experiencing a life threatening emergency and are in need of immediate support please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.

Please know there are alternatives to involving law enforcement in your mental health care. A community Based Alternative , Don’t Call The Police , states “We know that involving law enforcement in situations that they are not best equipped to handle can cause more harm than good. These harms disproportionately impact communities of color and the populations most in need of systemic and community supports. We founded dontcallthepolice.com to provide easy access to alternatives to calling the police when faced with a situation that requires de-escalation and/or intervention, and can be best managed by a community-based crisis response provider.”
