Gabrielle Burholt , LPC

Gabrielle Burholt brings a thoughtful, person-centered approach to counseling, meeting each person where they are and helping them discover strengths and motivation within themselves. She practices as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia, a credential that authorizes her to provide professional counseling services. She is also an Associate Certified Coach through the International Coach Federation, a recognized credential in professional coaching, and holds a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor credential for work with substance-related concerns.

Gabrielle emphasizes a collaborative space where listening, reflection, and powerful questions guide exploration. She focuses on each client's unique thoughts, feelings, struggles, goals, and dreams, helping clients analyze options, brainstorm solutions, and uncover resources they may not yet recognize. Central to her method is identifying personal values and translating those values into a compelling vision that fuels motivation and meaningful change for individuals and their families.

Her educational path began with a B.A. in Liberal Arts and a B.Mus. in Music Education, followed later by a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Training in life coaching further informed her practice and approach. Gabrielle values the mystery, pain, beauty, and promise she encounters in each person and welcomes inquiries from those seeking support. She often references George Eliot: "Adventure is not outside of man; it is within."

Approaches and Online Care with Gabrielle Burholt

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions because it emphasizes purpose and action. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment in which the client leads the process and the therapist provides empathy and reflection to foster self-discovery and growth. It is well suited to individuals seeking deeper self-understanding and improved self-esteem. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle observation of thoughts and emotions, offering practical tools to manage stress, regulate mood, and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Gabrielle works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore what feels most helpful and adjust the approach as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Gabrielle is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or wherever clients are, helping maintain consistency and continuity of care while accommodating life demands.
