New clients continue care with this provider

Hello! My name is Gabriela Rowinsky and I currently live in sunny Florida. My passion is helping people discover their true worth and define a path toward healing and fulfilment. I graduated college in 2011 with a Master's degree from Adelphi University. I am licensed to practice in Florida and Michigan. I help people ages 16+ to overcome depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions and self-doubt to create more fulfilling and empowered lives. With a deep commitment to the work I do, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

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

In your first session with me, we’ll start with some brief introductions to get to know each other, and then dive into the specific challenges you’re currently facing. I want to hear about what’s been going on in your life and the areas where you’re seeking support. I also want to know what your goals are and what you are looking to obtain from the therapy process. This helps me get a clear understanding of your unique needs so that I can create a tailored plan for us to work through in future sessions. I also prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship with you. I believe that when there’s a solid rapport between us, that’s when the most beneficial work happens. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable being open and honest, and together, we’ll work towards the growth and healing that you’re looking for.

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

As a therapist, my greatest strength lies in my genuine care and compassion for the people I work with. I strive to truly listen and connect with my clients, making them feel seen and understood on a deep level. I have a way of reaching people, helping them open up and feel safe to explore the challenges they’re facing without fear of judgment. My clients often tell me that they feel comfortable and at ease with me, knowing that I am someone who not only understands their struggles but is wholeheartedly invested in helping them overcome them. In addition to my ability to connect, I bring a high level of skill and expertise to my practice. I blend my knowledge and therapeutic techniques with a down-to-earth, relatable approach that meets people where they are. This balance of skill and authenticity allows me to guide my clients toward meaningful progress, helping them transform their lives in a way that feels personal, empowering, and achievable. My goal is always to create a space where clients can feel both supported and challenged, knowing that I’m here to walk alongside them every step of the way. I can’t wait to speak with you!

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in working with individuals who are ready to rediscover their inner strength and overcome the emotional barriers holding them back. You may feel weighed down by low self-worth, anxiety, or depression, often questioning your value and struggling with feelings of inadequacy. Perhaps you’ve experienced childhood trauma or find yourself in the midst of a major life transition, unsure of how to move forward. You’re the kind of person who often takes care of others but may neglect your own needs, leading to burnout or a sense of emptiness. Deep down, you know that things need to change, but you’re not quite sure where to begin. You may find our work together helpful if: -You struggle with feelings of low self-worth, self-doubt, or insecurity, and it’s impacting your ability to feel confident in your daily life. -Anxiety and depression are constant companions, making it hard to enjoy life, connect with others, or find peace in your mind. -Childhood trauma or difficult past experiences still affect you, whether it’s through emotional pain, strained relationships, or a feeling of being stuck. -You’re going through a major life transition—whether it’s a new chapter or an unexpected challenge—and you’re feeling lost, uncertain, or overwhelmed by it. -Are ready to take the steps needed to cultivate self-love, improve relationships, and build a life aligned with your worth. -You’re ready to heal, but you’re not sure where to start, and you want a safe space where you can be truly seen and heard.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution Focused brief Treatment will help you find practical solutions to immediate concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT helps you challenge unhelpful thought patterns and helps you recognize how your thoughts affect your feelings and behaviors. I also implement Trauma Focused CBT.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy technique designed to help individuals process and resolve traumatic or distressing memories. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR enables clients to reprocess painful memories in a way that reduces their emotional impact. By focusing on specific memories while engaging in this stimulation, clients often experience a shift in how they perceive the memory, leading to decreased emotional distress and improved mental well-being.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing will empower you to make meaningful, self-driven changes that will improve your mental health and overall quality of life.
