Hi! I’m Gaby — a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist here in Portsmouth, NH.
And I specialize in one of the most universal human experiences: change.

Whether it’s starting college, building a family, going through a breakup, or adjusting to life after kids…
Transitions are where growth happens — but they’re also where stress, anxiety, and disconnection can sneak in.

🌱 That’s where I come in.

With 7+ years of clinical experience, I help individuals, couples, and families make sense of where they are and how to move forward — with clarity, confidence, and emotional connection.

In therapy, we’ll explore what’s going on underneath the surface — in your thoughts, your relationships, and your stress responses. We’ll build tools to help you cope, communicate, and thrive in the season you’re in (and the ones ahead).

I work with:
✨ Individuals 8+
✨ Couples navigating relationship stress
✨ Families moving through life transitions

I also have advanced training in:
✔️ Child anxiety + parent accommodation
✔️ Infertility + perinatal grief
✔️ Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just unsure of what’s next — you don’t have to navigate it alone.
I’d love to meet you and help you find your footing again.

📍Now accepting new clients in-person in Portsmouth, NH.

☀️ Summer can be fun… and exhausting for couples.
Small, consistent moments matter more than waiting for the ‘perfect’ trip or date night.

What’s one small ritual you could start this week?

That back-to-school energy? It’s real—and it hits hard.

This carousel is your reminder: transitions are a process, not a switch. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need a game plan, a little patience, and a lot of presence.

Here’s to a smoother shift from summer to school—for both of you.

Criticism has a way of sneaking into our closest relationships—often dressed as frustration or "just being honest." But behind it? There’s usually pain, disconnection, and a deep need not being met.

The goal isn't to never feel frustrated—it's learning how to communicate through it, not around it.

This week’s post invites a deeper look at criticism: what it sounds like, what it reveals, and how we can choose connection instead.

You are enough—no matter where you’re at in life. Whether you’re stuck, pushing forward, feeling crushed, or totally crushing it—you’re enough just as you are.

We live in a world that makes worth feel like a moving target—always something more to do, fix, or prove.

But the truth? Your worth isn't up for debate. You don’t have to hustle for your worth. It’s not conditional or earned. It’s simply who you are.

💬 If you’re ready to stop chasing and start being, therapy can help you reconnect with that truth—and find peace in the process.
