Gabriela Lozano, LMFT

Gabriela Lozano is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and body image concerns, and issues related to LGBT identity. Her tone is warm and direct, aimed at people who need practical support for everyday habits and thought patterns.

She prefers an interactive, listening-focused style. Sessions focus on understanding what led to current struggles and finding concrete steps forward. Gabriela emphasizes that people often hold answers inside themselves and she guides them to uncover those insights.

Her approach blends client-centered methods with cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic ideas. She also uses elements from dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness therapy, and motivational interviewing when helpful. These methods are used to address emotional regulation, coping skills, and patterns that keep problems repeating.

Gabriela has decades of experience helping people who have experienced emotional trauma or abuse. She works with relationship problems, family of origin issues, caregiver stress, codependency, addiction-related concerns, and hospice or end-of-life worries. She aims to translate therapy ideas into everyday habits and thought changes that fit a person's life.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Gabriela invites people who are ready to take a step toward change to begin a collaborative process of understanding and action.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, respect, and helping people find their own solutions. It supports work on relationship issues, family stress, and day-to-day thought patterns by prioritizing what matters to the individual.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It breaks problems into workable steps and teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and habits, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and eating-related concerns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotional regulation and managing intense feelings. It teaches tools for coping, improving communication, and reducing impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to figure out which methods match their goals, needs, and personal style. That plan can change over time as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also be helpful when someone prefers not to use video or needs sessions in English or Spanish. Licensed professionals aim to shape therapy so it fits everyday life and supports steady habit and thought changes.
