Gisela Delgadillo, LMFT - Therapist in Florida

About Gisela

Gisela Delgadillo is a licensed marriage and family therapist working in Florida. She brings 10 years of hands-on experience helping people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, and addiction-related concerns. She focuses on practical support that parents and adults can use right away.

Gisela aims to make conversations straightforward and usable for everyday life. She prefers short-term, goal-oriented work when appropriate, while remaining open to deeper exploration when needed.

Background and approach

Her sessions draw on techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help people change unhelpful habits and rewrite the stories that keep them stuck. Gisela also uses Client-Centered principles to keep the session focused on each person's experience. Her practice pays attention to cultural background and how prejudice or discrimination can affect wellbeing.

She helps clients talk through family history, attachment concerns, blended family issues, and communication problems. Gisela also works with people facing separation, infidelity, jealousy, or midlife questions. In sessions she prioritizes clear communication and simple steps clients can try between meetings.

She supports exploration of self-love, life purpose, and coping skills for major life changes. The aim is to build stronger relationships and healthier patterns, one conversation at a time.

Evidence-based approaches for online family and personal work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client. The therapist offers empathy and acceptance while the client guides the topics and pace; this helps when someone needs space to find their own answers.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete tools to reduce anxiety or low mood and to change unhelpful patterns related to stress, parenting, or relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gisela will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean using CBT tools for quick symptom relief, exploring personal narratives to understand family patterns, or blending methods over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy parents and adults. Video calls let people meet face to face from home, phone sessions remove travel time, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a schedule and continue progress even during life transitions.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
