About Gabriele
Gabriele Hoog welcomes people who are worn down by anxiety, mood shifts, addiction, grief, or big life changes. She offers a steady, practical presence for those who need help managing strong emotions and making small, doable changes. Gabby is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of clinical experience and she works with each person at their own pace.
She uses a strengths-based, client-centered approach that treats the person as the expert on their life.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and simple skills to reduce overwhelm. Gabriele helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors and then try different responses that actually feel doable. Her work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to link thoughts, feelings, and actions, and on dialectical behavior therapy to teach distress tolerance and mindfulness.
She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies when people want support making concrete changes. These methods are presented plainly and practiced in-session. Gabriele pays attention to the whole picture, including sleep, movement, and self-care, because those things affect mood and energy.
She offers straightforward coaching for building routines and coping tools that fit daily life. That makes progress easier to keep. People come for help with stress, trauma, depression, relationship struggles, parenting strains, attention challenges, and substance use.
Gabriele aims to help clients feel heard, reduce reactivity, and build skills so life becomes more manageable.

Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people identify their own strengths and goals. It emphasizes collaboration so the person decides which parts of life to change and what support feels useful.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It helps people try small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and develop healthier habits for mood, sleep, and daily routines.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers practical tools for managing intense emotions. Skills like grounding, mindfulness, and distress tolerance can be practiced in sessions and used when stress spikes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences, then recommend methods to try. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made and needs change.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills together. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text let people send short updates, ask questions between sessions, or complete brief check-ins when time is tight. These options offer flexibility for busy lives while keeping therapy focused and practical.
