Gabrielle GoughLCSW

Gabrielle Gough is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people facing intense life changes and heavy emotions. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and compassion fatigue. Gabrielle writes and listens plainly, aiming to make hard conversations feel more manageable.

She trained in social work at Central Connecticut State University and earned a Master of Social Work from Florida State University. Over five years of practice she has worked with people dealing with end-of-life decisions, palliative concerns, and grief after loss. That background informs how she supports people through difficult transitions.

Sessions tend to center on clear goals and everyday coping tools. Gabrielle helps people sort priorities, plan next steps, and find ways to reduce overwhelm. She also addresses caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and challenges linked to aging and hospice care.

She brings a straightforward, compassionate approach to topics like postpartum depression, isolation, and finding meaning after loss. Gabrielle also supports people with visual impairment and those managing co-morbid health conditions. Her work includes advocacy and case management when that helps move practical matters forward.

Gabrielle practices in Florida and communicates in English. She aims to meet people where they are and help them take small, tangible steps toward feeling steadier.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Gabrielle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage strong emotions and practical problems. One common approach is focused problem-solving and skills work, which breaks big problems into small steps and teaches coping tools that can be used day to day. This helps with anxiety, stress, and overwhelming to-do lists.

She also uses grief- and loss-focused work that helps people make sense of change and find ways to carry on after loss. That work combines space to tell a story about what happened with practical planning for next steps, which can ease decision-making during hard times.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabrielle will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist work together to pick methods that match needs, preferences, and what’s realistic in daily life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people access care from within their local area in Florida without changing daily routines.
