Hi, welcome to my website, my name is Gabriela Villalobos Pronouns she/her/hers/ella.

Feeling stuck after trauma, loss, or major life change? Feeling unsatisfied in your relationship due to conflict, disconnection or lack of sexual intimacy? My practice is dedicated to helping individuals heal, create meaning and fulfillment in their lives, and develop fulfilling and meaningful relationships. You will gain deeper emotional resilience, feel more grounded in your relationships, and reconnect with what matters most. I also help individuals increase sexual satisfaction in their lives. My practice is rooted in creating a safe space for yourself where you can feel comfortable to connect and feel pleasure with others.

My practice is an inclusive therapeutic space for Latinx community (immigrants from Latin America, 1st generation Latinos, ect.) , people of color and LGBTQ+ community. Hablo Espanol! . I graduated from the University of San Francisco with a masters in clinical psychology. My specific license is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor.

Are you struggling through a tough transition of loss and change? Feeling lost, lonely, scared, confused, helpless and hopeless through this transition. I am here to help. I believe we can derive powerful meaning, wisdom and growth from these experiences. In the initial stages the journey may feel agonizing and just wanting for it all to go away and have an easy fix. Through my various years of experience I like to use a collaborative, supportive and client centered approach to support my patients gain skills to foster more resilience, meaning, growth and fulfillment in their journey through adversity. I will provide you a safe space to voice yourself, explore your needs and a listening ear to fully understand your experience.

If you are also struggling with the impact of a recent traumatic event or have years of trauma that makes you feel like your life is looping with no progress? Feeling stuck between who you have been and who you want to become? I am here to help. My clinical lens is holistic, compassionate and has a trauma lens . This meaning I try to understand a patient’s perception of life and assess how trauma has impacted their perspective on life and how they engage in relationships. I integrate somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and neuroscience-informed practices to help you:

  • Understand emotional patterns without judgment

  • Build a safer, more trusting relationship with yourself

  • Learn how your nervous system shapes your reactions and relationships

  • Create change that feels embodied — not forced or intellectualized

Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you listen more deeply to yourself and respond with clarity, compassion, and choice.

Having struggles as a woman to connect with your own sexual desire. I like to make a safe space for woman to explore themselves outside the lens of traditional patriarchal structures. To allow woman to be in touch with their desires aligned with their authentic selves and explore their sexuality in healthy and safe ways.

Are you interested in the world of ENM, non-monogamy, polyamory or feeling lost through your journey of exploration? I also offer a space for patients to explore non-monogamy and see if this is a right for them. If so I can journey with you through this non-traditional relational structure to create deep fulfillment.
