Jimmie Gabel

I provide counseling to adults and children who have experienced trauma through various theoretical approaches. I continually study and train in different approaches and will begin EMDR training in April. I develop treatment plans and psychosocial evaluations for clients in order to best plan for their treatment. I participate in weekly case consultations with colleagues and managers in order to collaborate and obtain outside perspectives, which allows me to best serve my clients.
