About Gabriela
Gabriela Hall-Chung is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. She brings 17 years of experience and a warm, direct style to sessions. Her tone is compassionate and down-to-earth, aimed at someone who wants straightforward support and practical tools.
Gabriela earned a Master’s degree in Counselor Education and has been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor since 2006 (FL LMHC MH8274).
Background and approach
She has worked in mental health and substance abuse settings since 2001, supporting people with mood concerns, behavior-related addictions, career stress, grief, trauma, anger, and self-esteem issues. Her approach is interactive and reality-based. She focuses on practical steps the client can use between sessions.
Gabriela mixes cognitive-behavioral techniques with humanistic listening and mindfulness practices to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping. Sessions prioritize respect and validation rather than labels. Gabriela aims to challenge unhelpful thinking gently and to help clients find daily practices that reduce distress and improve relationships.
She balances empathy with clear guidance so clients can make steady progress. Starting therapy with Gabriela involves setting goals and deciding on small, achievable changes. She encourages people to take the first step when they feel ready and offers ongoing support as they work toward more balanced functioning and greater emotional resilience.
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Gabriela draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavioral experiments. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress by changing thoughts and actions.She also uses humanistic listening to validate experience and support personal growth. That work focuses on building self-awareness, self-compassion, and clearer values so clients can make choices that fit their lives.
Finally, mindfulness-based practices are offered to help with emotional regulation and presence. These are short, practical exercises that can be used during the day to reduce reactivity and improve focus.
Deciding which approach to use happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily life, and what methods feel most comfortable, then adjust the plan as needed to fit preferences and progress.
Online therapy is delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility for busy schedules. These formats let people access a licensed professional from home, fit sessions around parenting or work, and use shorter check-ins or longer meetings depending on need.
