Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like yourself? Let’s talk. I’m Gail Gerbig, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Owner of Seaside Mental Wellness. With over 26 years of experience, I help adults across Florida navigate life’s challenges—whether it’s anxiety, stress, grief, or a major life transition. At Seaside, therapy is designed to meet you where you are—both emotionally and literally. I provide virtual therapy for adults anywhere in Florida, so you can get the support you need without the stress of traffic, waiting rooms, or taking extra time off. Whether you’re facing a life change, managing overwhelming emotions, or just want to feel more like you again, I’m here to help. With a warm, collaborative, and solution-focused approach, we’ll create a safe space where you can gain clarity, build coping skills, and work towards emotional wellness.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Your first session is a chance to pause, breathe, and begin—without pressure or expectations. We’ll take some time to connect on what brought you here, what you’re hoping to achieve, and what challenges you’ve been facing. Together, we’ll discuss your goals, explore a few helpful strategies, and start mapping out your next steps. By the end of our session, you’ll have: A clearer understanding of how we’ll work together A safe, supportive space to begin processing what’s been weighing on you A few small, steady steps to help you move forward with confidence

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

With over two decades of experience in both clinical and private practice settings, I bring a calm, compassionate, and insightful approach to therapy. Whether you're managing daily stress or navigating a significant life change, I'm here to walk alongside you with empathy, support, and understanding. I specialize in helping adults who are: Managing anxiety, depression, or emotional overwhelm Coping with grief, caregiving, or chronic illness Navigating major life transitions—career changes, relationship shifts, or new stages of life Feeling burned out or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them Seeking a more compassionate relationship with themselves—mind, body, and spirit I create a space where you can feel truly supported and empowered. It’s a place to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. You deserve to be seen and heard in a way that makes sense for your journey. My approach combines evidence-based methods like CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy, all within a collaborative, personalized framework. If you’re looking for a therapist who will listen deeply, provide emotional support, and help you build a life that feels balanced and meaningful, I’d be honored to support you on your path to wellness.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns, leading to healthier coping strategies and improved emotional well-being. In our sessions, we’ll work together to uncover these patterns and replace them with more balanced, positive ways of thinking. Tailored to your unique needs, CBT empowers you to create lasting change in both your emotions and daily life.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

SFT is a powerful tool for helping clients discover their strengths and create lasting change. In our sessions, we’ll focus on your future goals, identifying your unique strengths and resources. Together, we’ll develop a clear, actionable plan with small, achievable steps to build momentum toward positive change.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-Based Therapy helps cultivate awareness, reduce stress, and build emotional resilience. In our sessions, we’ll use techniques like breathwork, meditation, and body awareness to help you stay present and manage emotions with clarity. Together, we’ll explore how mindfulness can enhance self-awareness, emotional regulation, and overall well-being, giving you practical tools to navigate life with greater balance and ease.
