About Gabriele Hoog
Gabriele combines a strengths-based, solutions-focused perspective with practical skills training to promote lasting change. She teaches clients how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect, and she guides them in developing new strategies to manage old patterns. That practical work often includes cognitive-behavioral techniques, distress tolerance skills from dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness, as well as grounding and breathing practices to help during moments of high distress.
Her approach expands beyond symptom reduction to consider overall wellness - including attention to sleep, diet, exercise, and self-care - while empowering clients to identify and build on their personal strengths. Treatment plans are developed collaboratively, with the client recognized as the expert on their own life. Gabriele’s central aim is to encourage movement toward greater balance, peace, and meaningful progress in daily living.
