About Gabriel
Gabriel Most is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience based in New York. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and LGBT-related issues. He aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable and straightforward for someone taking the first step.
Gabriel blends practical strategies with reflection on life meaning. He draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness practices to increase self-awareness.
Background and approach
He also uses trauma-focused tools when past events continue to cause distress. His background includes a social work degree from CUNY Hunter College and a nursing degree from the Phillips Beth Israel School of Nursing. Those combined perspectives inform his belief in the mind-body connection.
He helps people notice how physical habits and mental habits affect one another and then makes small changes that add up. Sessions are collaborative and goal oriented. Gabriel tailors the mix of approaches to each person’s needs.
He emphasizes practical steps people can try between meetings and checks progress along the way. He speaks English and practices in New York as an LCSW. He supports people dealing with life transitions, caregiving stress, compassion fatigue, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, chronic illness and end-of-life questions, among other issues.
Gabriel encourages anyone considering help to take the next step and schedule a brief match questionnaire to begin.

How Gabriel’s Approaches Work Online
Gabriel commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral methods focus on identifying and changing thought patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, or anger. Mindfulness work trains simple attention and breathing habits to reduce reactivity and support clearer thinking.He also integrates trauma-focused tools when past events continue to shape current reactions. Those techniques aim to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and help people feel more able to manage day-to-day triggers. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together; Gabriel discusses goals and preferences and then adjusts methods to suit the person.
Online therapy with him is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and real-time exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking homework, or working through quick coping strategies between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
