About Gabriela
Gabriela Morris is a person-centred counsellor registered with the BACP and has seven years' practice in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on issues including trauma, relationship strain, grief, anxiety, mood difficulties and parenting concerns.
Gabriela helps people who have survived abusive relationships and sexual abuse. She also supports those coping with loss and the different stages of grief. Much of her work looks at attachment patterns and how these shape behaviour in family relationships.
Her sessions focus on listening and supporting clients to find their own solutions. People often work on setting boundaries, improving communication and making practical changes at home. Gabriela uses straightforward conversation rather than technical language.
Earlier in her career she trained with Road Victim Trust to counsel people bereaved by road incidents. That experience shapes how she talks about loss and the small steps people take while grieving. She also sought additional training to support adults affected by sexual abuse.
In private practice she has supported people to understand blended family tensions, caregiving strain and codependent dynamics. Clients commonly bring worries about parenting, intimacy-related issues, addictions, and body image. Gabriela speaks English, Czech and Slovak and works with adults who want to address these areas.
She asks new clients to complete an initial questionnaire and book a first session so they can agree on aims and practical steps. The emphasis is on steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping the client clarify their own priorities. It supports people who want to build boundaries, address relationship patterns or manage emotional distress by encouraging self-directed problem solving.Existential Therapy looks at the practical meaning of life events and choices. It can help people facing grief, major life changes or deep questions about responsibility and connection by naming fears and considering realistic options.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs and preferences and help decide whether a person-centred or an existential focus - or a mix of both - feels most useful. This is a collaborative process where goals are set together and reviewed over time.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins during a break. They also make it straightforward to meet with a registered or accredited professional from your own location while you plan practical changes at home.
