Gabriella Luiz
Registered Psychologist
Hi there, I’m Gabriella.
I’m a registered Psychologist at Observe Psychology, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.
I know the decision to begin therapy can take a lot of courage, and my goal is to help you feel supported, safe, and truly seen from the very first step. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and grounding—offering both a place to gently unpack what’s weighing you down and the tools to begin creating change.
I work from a trauma-informed, mindfulness-based lens, integrating evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and ACT to support people through a wide range of challenges—whether that’s anxiety, depression, emotion dysregulation, addiction, life transitions, or grief and loss.
Outside of private practice, I also work at a private hospital, where I support group programs including Anxiety Management, Alcohol Relapse Prevention, and the full Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) program.
Some of the areas I can support you with include:
- Managing anxiety and depression
- Breaking free from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional burnout
- Healing from grief and loss
- Developing a more compassionate, resilient relationship with yourself
- Understanding and shifting unhelpful habits or thought patterns
- Supporting recovery from addiction and emotional dysregulation
Fees
