Gabriele Rebbe

Gabriele Rebbe is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing major life changes and everyday struggles. She holds LPC and LCMHC credentials and has over 22 years of experience. She meets people with warmth and few assumptions, aiming to make the first conversation feel safe and straightforward.

She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, and relationship or parenting challenges. She also supports those navigating grief, career shifts, sleep problems, and changes tied to health or caregiving. Gabriele pays attention to practical needs as well as emotional ones when life feels unsettled.

Her style is conversational and down-to-earth. She uses client-centered methods and draws on cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches to help people notice patterns and try new skills. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also inform her work when it fits a person’s goals.

Gabriele adapts the plan to match what each person wants to achieve. She often mixes coaching and therapy tools to help clients set realistic steps and build confidence. Humor and plain talk appear when they help ease tension.

She practiced in a range of settings over two decades and brings that variety to sessions in Vermont. Sessions are offered in English and German, and she is experienced supporting people through complex situations like adoption, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and trauma-related concerns.

How Gabriele blends approaches for online work

Gabriele draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy when working with people online. Client-centered work focuses on listening closely, validating what a person says, and shaping sessions around their priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and tests simple experiments to change them.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy techniques to teach practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. DBT tools can be useful for stress, anger, relationship strain, and coping with major life transitions.

Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. Gabriele will work with each person to decide which methods to emphasize based on their goals and what feels most helpful in early sessions.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commutes, and allow a quicker check-in during a work break or between appointments. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises, skill practice, and coaching-style tasks from wherever they are, while tailoring the pace to everyday life.
