About Gabrielle
Gabrielle McMurphy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, ADHD, addictions, bipolar disorder, and major life changes.
Her approach is warm and straightforward, aimed at making it easier to talk about hard things and learn tools that actually help day to day.
Background and approach
Gabrielle keeps sessions collaborative and down-to-earth. She uses practical methods from evidence-based approaches to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping. Conversations are paced to fit each person - some weeks focus on skills practice, other weeks look more at underlying feelings and events.
She brings three years of clinical experience to each session and holds licensure in North Carolina as an LCMHC and in South Carolina as an LPC. That background supports work with a broad range of concerns, from mood disorders to relationship and communication struggles. Sessions are conducted in English.
Gabrielle integrates a mix of approaches like the Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to match client needs. The goal is to combine practical skills with space to process emotions so people can rebuild confidence and move through transitions.
To begin, a simple online matching questionnaire and scheduling process helps connect a person with her practice. Therapy is delivered through several online formats to fit different routines and preferences.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Gabrielle uses the Gottman Method to help people improve communication and manage conflict patterns in close relationships. This approach looks at how partners interact and teaches concrete skills for listening, expressing needs, and repairing rifts.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try alternative responses that reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gabrielle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change over time.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and live chat or messaging fits quick check-ins or brief skill reinforcement. These formats make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and different comfort levels.
