Gabriella Stumpf , LICSW

Gabriella Stumpf is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota. She brings eight years of clinical experience and a personal understanding of mental health to her work. Gabriella focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

Her approach centers on listening first and then building a plan that fits each person's life. Sessions are straightforward and collaborative. She uses tools from cognitive and narrative methods alongside mindfulness to help clients notice patterns and try new responses.

Gabriella also works with people dealing with trauma, grief, addiction, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. She pays attention to attachment and family of origin issues that often shape how people relate to others. The goal is to make small changes that add up to more manageable days.

Clients can expect practical strategies for coping with mood shifts and big life changes, plus space to tell their story. Gabriella helps people strengthen self-esteem and work through abandonment, communication, and commitment worries. Her experience includes a range of community and clinical settings, which informs a flexible style.

She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Gabriella uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Gabriella’s Approaches Fit Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions. It helps people understand attachment needs and change how they connect in close relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It teaches simple, practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress through behavioral experiments and thought work.

Mindfulness Therapy helps people become more aware of moment-to-moment experience and reduce automatic reactivity. It is useful for coping with stress, rumination, and emotional overwhelm.

Finding the best approach is part of Gabriella’s process. She collaborates with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals, life demands, and what feels most helpful in session. That means trying things and adjusting as needed rather than committing to a single path up front.

Online therapy offers flexibility that many people need. Video calls let conversation feel close to in-person work, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and live chat or text messaging provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy working around a busy life.
