Gabrielle Barrington, LCPC

Gabrielle Barrington is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) who focuses on helping people move past what holds them back. She uses a warm, inviting approach that encourages people to notice their strengths and claim better for themselves. Sessions emphasize purpose, self-care, and building assertiveness so daily life feels more manageable.

Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and eating or body-image struggles. Career questions, anger, parenting concerns, and coaching goals are part of her practice as well.

Gabrielle draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to form the foundation of sessions. She adds cognitive behavioral tools and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. Emotionally-focused concepts and Jungian perspectives may also inform how she and a client make sense of patterns and feelings.

With seven years of clinical experience, she frames therapy as a collaborative process. Gabrielle aims to uncover what keeps someone stuck and then coach practical steps forward. The focus is on small, achievable changes that build lasting progress.

She offers services from Maryland and conducts sessions in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, prospective clients follow the platform Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Gabrielle’s approaches translate to online therapy

Gabrielle often uses attachment-based and client-centered methods to guide sessions. Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and shift those patterns. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following what matters most to the person in front of her, which can help people feel heard and understood during online sessions.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to teach concrete skills for managing thoughts and behaviors. CBT tools are useful for stress, anxiety, and low mood because they offer simple practices clients can use between meetings. The therapist will work with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals and comfort level, making that decision together rather than upfront.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time so therapy is easier to keep up. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone or audio when attention or bandwidth is limited, while others opt for fuller conversation with video. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they match your needs and schedule.
