About Gabriela

Gabriela Morris is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She offers person-centred counselling and focuses on issues such as trauma, relationship problems, grief, anxiety and blended family issues.

She works in a straightforward way and helps people find answers that suit them. Sessions focus on talking through past abuse, relationship patterns and how those experiences affect day-to-day life. Gabriela notes many clients come after domestic or sexual abuse, and she has undertaken further training to work sensitively with that material.

Gabriela also supports people dealing with loss. She completed training with a road victims support organisation and uses that background to calmly guide conversations about grief and what comes after a bereavement. Practical steps and pacing are part of these meetings.

Work around family and attachment is another common thread. She helps individuals reflect on how early attachments show up now, how boundaries are used, and how to change repeating patterns. These conversations aim to build clearer communication and steadier routines in everyday life.

Sessions are direct and conversational rather than instructive. Gabriela mixes careful listening with questions that help people notice choices and next steps. She encourages small, doable changes people can try between sessions.

People who prefer talking through experiences with someone who listens and asks practical questions may find this approach helpful. Gabriela speaks English, Czech and Slovak and sees enquiries from within the United Kingdom.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following what the client brings. Online sessions keep that same emphasis, letting the person lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects and asks questions to help clarify feelings and choices.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility and the choices people make in their lives. Online meetings can be used to work through topics such as purpose, commitment, and how to respond to difficult life changes or relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, try approaches that fit the client's needs, and adjust as conversations progress. This happens through shared discussion and regular check-ins about what is and isn't helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family life and travel. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules need it or for sessions without video if that helps people manage concentration or bandwidth.
