I am so grateful to welcome Gabriela Manriquez to our team!
Gabriela Manriquez, AMFT is an empathetic, culturally attuned therapist who guides clients in reconnecting with themselves, transforming habitual patterns, and cultivating self-compassion to live with greater peace, clarity, and intention. She earned her Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and practices an integrative, evidence-based approach that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit.
As the eldest daughter of immigrants, Gabriela brings a nuanced understanding of family dynamics, responsibility, and internalized pressures. She views therapy and inner work as radical acts of love: by turning inward with curiosity, clients learn to care for themselves with the same compassion they extend to others—transforming their relationships and the world around them.
Her approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and integrative. Gabriela draws from psychodynamic and attachment-based therapy, CBT, IFS-informed parts work, mindfulness, somatic practices, and sound-based meditations to support holistic healing. She works with clients navigating anxiety, attachment wounds, fertility and assisted reproductive journeys, pregnancy and postpartum transitions, life changes, relationship challenges, self-esteem and self-worth, complex or developmental trauma, and women’s issues.
Gabriela offers therapy in both English and Spanish, creating a space where clients can breathe, explore new possibilities, and live more fully aligned with their values. Her fee is $150. A select few spots for sliding scale available for those in financial hardship.
