More about Gayle

  • 38 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am an LCSW, licensed in the State of Georgia, with more than 30 years of experience in Behavioral Health. I have worked with Individuals, Families, Couples and groups with a variety of concerns. I have worked with clients with Depression, and Anxiety. I have also worked with Relationship issues including assessing and working with Domestic Violence issues. I have experience in working with Addiction issues, including those with co-occurring issues of addictions and depression or anxiety. I have extensive experience in working with families dealing with changing roles due to Aging and Dementia. I am also well familiar in dealing with community resources for support to assist you or your family as you are tackling these issues.

I believe strongly that establishing a good rapport is crucial to doing good work. My style is somewhat casual and conversational. I believe in treating people with respect and dignity. This is key to establishing trust and safety.

It is not always easy to step out and seek help, but I applaud your courage to do so. I look forward to helping you set your goals and working to achieve them.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Gayle is down to earth and easy to talk to, I feel as though I'm talking to a friend who happens to be a professional. I highly recommend chatting with Gayle, she offered plenty of resources and really elaborated on situations that provided better understanding for me to see the situation in an outside perspective.
