About Gabriela
LMFT in California with 15 years of clinical experience, Gabriela Lozano supports people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and LGBT-related concerns. She works in both English and Spanish and helps with issues such as body image, codependency, substance problems, and caregiver stress.
Gabriela uses a mix of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness techniques, and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions focus on practical skills for emotional regulation, clearer communication, and changing unhelpful behavior patterns. She encourages clients to notice what works and build small, manageable changes into daily life.
Her background includes work across a variety of relationship and family issues and long-term experience with people who have survived emotional trauma or abuse. Gabriela frames many presenting problems - including eating and food-related concerns, abandonment fears, and guilt or shame - as connected to one’s personal history and early relationships.
In sessions she listens for how past experiences influence present habits. She combines short-term strategies, like cognitive reframing and motivational interviewing, with longer-term exploration of relationship patterns and underlying emotions. DBT skills are used when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are priorities.
Gabriela helps clients set concrete goals and practices between sessions. She supports people working through forgiveness, communication problems, first responder stresses, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and recovery from domestic violence. To start, she asks about current struggles, goals, and practical constraints so sessions fit a client’s life.

How Gabriela uses evidence-based approaches in remote work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person’s priorities guide the work; this approach supports people who need clearer goals and personal validation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions interact and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior, often helpful for anxiety, depression, and eating-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when intense emotions or relationship conflicts are present.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Gabriela discusses goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then adjusts methods over time. She blends short-term tools with deeper exploration so the plan can shift as needs change.
Session format details are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use voice-only sessions when bandwidth is limited or video is not practical. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and homework to what fits a person’s daily life rather than promising any specific outcome.
