Meet Therapist Gabi Baylor
I am a dedicated associate psychotherapist who supports teens, adults, and families. I create a safe place to discuss your concerns and challenges at home, work, or school. I can help you be seen and heard as you try to communicate and set boundaries. I understand that thoughts and feelings can be painful if you do not trust yourself or others.
Through a person-centered approach, my goal is to help identify individual needs, and support your growth in building self-esteem to restore balance, and inspire independence and hope. I believe everyone possesses unique strengths and abilities that can provide a foundation to healing and achieve goals. Our work can help build new habits to create lasting positive change in your life.
My Experience
I am a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC), the only professional counselors educated and trained specifically to serve individuals with disabilities. Having developed a severe chronic pain condition at a young age, I adjusted my lifestyle to foster independence and success. My hope is to provide a compassionate environment for one to explore their situation and identify needs to inspire positive lifestyle changes.
Overall my work has centered on supporting monolingual Spanish speaking parents/ youth, multicultural families, youth and adults in the legal justice system, and individuals with at risk mental health symptoms. I am deeply humbled and value connecting with such diverse populations. I believe each client is unique and offers an individual lived experience, background and culture.
Its Okay to Need Help
You don’t have to be alone in your mental health journey; I am here to provide you with support and guidance. Coping with mental health can be immensely challenging, both physically and emotionally, but together, we can work on strategies to improve your quality of life and overall well-being. We’ll explore various techniques to help you regain a sense of control over your life. We will work together to restore a sense of control and purpose in your life.
