Therapy can be helpful for anyone. Humans are relational beings and working with someone trained to hold your big thoughts and emotions can help you become a better you.

My name is Gabriela Cibrian and I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. My passion is working with individuals and families to help them understand behavioral patterns within themselves to help them make positive changes. My style and approach to therapy are a good fit for children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma and symptoms related to stress, anxiety, and depression. I specialize in working with clients to help them understand trauma responses and formulate a plan to create healthier thought patterns that lead to healthier behavioral patterns.

I offer online & in person nature walks for Individuals and Couples in California. If you're experiencing emotional pain, depression, anxiety, or feeling unhappy with your life, you are doing the best thing for yourself in reaching out for professional help. I provide a confidential and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore deeper parts of yourself, understand behavioral patterns that might be negatively affecting you, and learn how to improve your relationships. My ultimate goal is to help you find healing and achieve your personal goals. It is my privilege and passion to witness my client's inner intelligence at work.

It can be challenging to find a therapist who gets you and can hold space for what you're dealing with. If you are looking to rediscover your life after surviving incredibly difficult experiences and want a relaxed environment, but a straightforward (no BS) therapist who treats you with compassion and respect, let’s talk. I understand healing can be messy and growth can be uncomfortable, so I blend empathy and genuine curiosity with dark humor and the occasional f-bomb to create a brave space for my clients to work through their most challenging experiences and achieve post-traumatic growth.

Couples and relationships are at the heart of my practice. People seeking peace and wholeness within distressing relationships often face anxiety and or depression. I combine my training, using a diverse collection of trauma informed techniques, with my gifts as a therapist. I work collaboratively with couples and individuals to surface triggers that may be contributing to their distress. We’ll explore your patterns and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others.

Has trauma, anxiety, or depression interfered with the potential to become the best version of yourself? We often feel defined by traumatic or emotionally difficult experiences then often leave us feeling stuck in place rather than moving forward towards our goals. I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space for you to develop an understanding of yourself to overcome past experiences or fears that define you. Our work together will be met with unconditional acceptance, creative approaches, and the utmost compassion.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards feeling better. Picking a therapist can be daunting experiencing, but you don't have to go it alone. I love working with people in order to make their lives more fulfilling. I get energy from those who are courageous enough to share their genuine self in the therapy space and anyone who strives towards a healthier life.

I have been doing psychotherapy for 6 years and became licensed in 2020. I have experience in CBT, DBT, trauma focused, distress tolerance, impulse control and solution focused therapy modalities. I have worked with children, adults, couples and families. I enjoy collaborating with my clients to get them to meet their mental health goals.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “Why is this happening? Is it always going to be like this? What can I do?” Do you feel anxious, sad or misunderstood more often than not? Maybe life seems easier and better for everyone around you. Maybe you're surrounded by people, but you feel alone. Your relationships feel like a struggle to maintain. Conflict and discomfort seem like the norm, not the exception. Sometimes it seems like it will never get better and no one understands.

Despite our evolutionary progress the essence of being human hasn’t changed. We require acceptance, understanding, compassion, love and connection. We struggle with our fears, hopes, dreams, and relationships. These are the common issues that bring people into therapy. The pathway to healing can be achieved in many ways. Each person has his/her own unique perception and emotional world and my first task is to understand yours. Together we can create your path to self acceptance, strength and resilience. Your first step is to accept responsibility, then to identify the critical components of your individuality and identity.

Accepting NEW clients! I have always been passionate about the human story. I find it remarkable to listen to my clients’ journey and create a space together to pause, reflect and heal. My own healing journey has taught me that life gets hard, healing is messy, and also...that we don’t have to go through it alone. The therapy space is a valuable one and a protected process that allows you to honor the truth of your unique self while better understanding the systems and structures that we operate within, allowing us to bring more balance into the way we see ourselves and our interactions with the world.

What season of your personal and/or love life are you in? Are you in spring- full of hope and anticipation, summer- relaxed and enjoying life, fall- grappling with uncertainty, or winter- discouraged and disconnected? Unresolved or unaddressed grief and conflict can rob us of the ability to live life fully. Have you experienced disconnection in your relationship, breakup, divorce, loss of a loved one, health decline/medical issues, aging; or change associated with a move, new job, or COVID that is causing stress, anxiety, or depression? I can help you find inner peace while weathering the storm.
