About Gabriele

Gabriele Rebbe is a licensed professional counselor who aims to help people find better sleep and balance in daily life. She is listed as LPC and LCMHC and brings 22 years of experience to sessions. She speaks English and German and practices in Vermont. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, addictions, grief, and life changes.

Gabriele draws on straightforward conversation and practical tools. She uses client-centered methods to listen first and tailor each plan to the person in front of her. She also integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build healthier habits that can improve mood and sleep.

Her work sometimes includes elements from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Motivational interviewing helps when people want to make changes but feel stuck, and mindfulness practices are used to reduce worry and promote calm. Humor and warmth are woven into sessions to ease tension.

Gabriele has worked in a variety of behavioral health settings and has supported people who have experienced abuse and trauma-related symptoms. She aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring dialogue and plans to each person’s needs.

To begin, she asks for a clear discussion of goals and works with clients to set manageable steps. People who want support for sleep, coping skills, or life transitions can expect practical strategies and steady encouragement.

How therapeutic approaches work online with a sleep focus

Client-centered therapy centers conversations on each person's priorities and goals. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps shape a plan that fits the person's life and sleep needs. This approach is useful when someone needs someone to understand their routine and struggles before trying new strategies.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, behaviors, and sleep patterns. It includes practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build routines that support better rest. CBT can help with insomnia-related worry and habits that keep someone awake.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers tools for managing strong emotions and settling the body before bedtime. Skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance can reduce nighttime rumination and support steadier sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions can mix methods over time as priorities change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help people try strategies in their everyday environments without rearranging large parts of life.
