Gabriella DiSapio, LPC
Gabriella DiSapio, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor who graduated with a Master's Degree from Post University's School of Mental Health Counseling, and a Bacherlor's Degree in Psychology from Western Connecticut State University.
Gabriella has experience working with children, adolescents, and adults, ranging from outpatient settings, to working with clients experiencing higher acuity symptoms in an emergency room and inpatient setting setting. Gabriella has a vast array of experience, including working with individuals in crisis situations, experiencing distressing symptoms, to working with generalized anxiety, depression, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, DMDD, personality disorders, ADHD, and major depressive disorders. She uses CBT, DBT, and Solution Focused Theory to create a tailored treatment plan that is thoughtful, individualized, and can give clients the tools and skills to help them succeed in their day to day life. Gabriella works with a strengths based and person centered approach, knowing that no two people with the same diagnosis are alike. Family history, culture, past trauma, and the needs of one's daily life functioning are always considered, in conjunction with the patient's preferences and goals, to create a treatment plan together.
Gabriella believes in creating a comfortable environment where people can feel supported and open to share their feelings and experiences. Gabriella's goal is to tailor treatment plans to fit individual's needs, adding in skills and tools that they can utilize to improve their daily life functioning. She believes in creating a calming, inviting environment where clients can feel supported when sharing their feelings and struggles. She enjoys using art and play with children, nurturing their creativity and expression of emotions. Not limited to just children, Gabriella uses expressive arts and psychoeducation with teens and adults, educating them on their symptoms and coping skills while encouraging expression and personal development. Gabriella strives to aid clients in seeing and achieving their full potential.
