Miranda J. Gabriel, Psy. D
I am glad you are here. My name is Dr. Miranda Gabriel and I am here to help you. My goal as a licensed clinical psychologist is to provide a safe and compassionate place where clients from all over the San Francisco Bay Area can get encouragement and support as they navigate through the challenges in life. No matter what you are going through, whether depression, anxiety, autism, concerns about your child or teen, or grief and loss, there is hope.

Making the decision to begin therapy can be very difficult for many people. You may wonder whether the therapist can understand and empathize with your concerns, feelings, thoughts, and actions. In order for therapy to be successful, there needs to be a trusting and collaborative relationship between you and your therapist.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, my approach to psychotherapy is to create a safe environment through supportive listening and empathy to enable you to talk about patterns in your life that are causing you distress.I offer a non-judgmental and confidential environment so you can talk about your concerns and learn new ways to cope, adapt, and to regain a satisfying and fulfilling life.

But what do you do when you want to improve your communication with your partner, deal with stress, get help with depression or anxiety, or help your child to be less angry?
Making the decision to seek out a therapist is hard enough.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a private practice in Los Gatos, CA.
I provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults.
I work with a wide range of emotional and interpersonal difficulties.
I have been in private practice since 2003.
I conduct comprehensive psychological testing for children, adolescents, and adults.
With over 20 years of experience, one of my primary areas of specialization is in providing assessments and treatment for children and adolescents who have autism or Asperger's syndrome.
As a licensed psychologist, my psychotherapeutic style is warm, reflective, and personal.
It is very important to the success of therapy that people feel safe, relaxed, and open, and I do my best to create such an atmosphere.
I endeavor to create a safe therapeutic environment through supportive listening and empathy to enable you to talk about patterns in your life that are causing you distress.
People frequently say that they appreciate my non-judgmental and accepting attitude, and comment on how safe they feel to be themselves in our sessions.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides the opportunity for you to discuss your emotional concerns and difficulties in the context of a healing relationship with a psychotherapist.
The psychologist provides emotional support and important insights, which enables you to see your conflicts in a new light and to gradually let go of old patterns of feelings and behaving.
In the initial phase of psychotherapy, my approach is to establish a safe environment through supportive listening and empathy so that you will feel comfortable talking about your difficulties.
Children often puzzle or worry their parents and teachers.
Most worries disappear in a short period of time as the child matures and finds solutions to his or her difficulties.
When a child's worries continue, it is time to consider expert help.
These worries might be social, such as when a child alienates his or her friends by being bossy, shy, or critical.
Worries may be about academics when a child appears to be performing lower than their potential at school.
Parents often ask themselves why this is happening to their child.
