About Gabriela
Gabriela Lozano is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults around relationship strain, eating concerns, grief, trauma and LGBT issues. Gabriela speaks English and Spanish and helps people who want clearer patterns in their relationships and emotional lives.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify the patterns that began in the family you grew up in and still affect your choices today. Sessions focus on what is happening now, how old patterns show up, and small practical steps to change unhelpful reactions. Gabriela names what she notices and invites clients to test different ways of responding.
Her practice blends client-centered listening with psychodynamic thinking and cognitive-behavioral tools. That means time is spent both understanding where patterns came from and learning skills to shift them. Mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior work may be used to help manage strong emotions and urges.
She has worked with people facing abandonment fears, codependency, body image and eating concerns, control and communication problems, and stress from caregiving roles. Gabriela also supports those dealing with guilt, shame, substance concerns, and the emotional effects of domestic violence or other trauma.
People who choose her often want clear feedback, practical tools, and a focus on how family of origin issues shape current relationships. To begin, she asks clients to describe current struggles and goals so sessions can focus on immediate steps alongside deeper understanding.
How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what matters to you. It helps people feel understood and decide which steps matter most in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, eating concerns and relationship habits.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Gabriela will help you and the therapist choose methods that fit your goals, personal style and what you want to focus on. That selection is collaborative and can change as your needs change.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people join from different locations within the same state, which can help keep appointments consistent while balancing work, caregiving or other commitments.
