More about Gail

20 years' experience
Female
LCSW

My name is Gail Wylde. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with young to older adults. I have experience working with and helping people recover from depression, panic, social anxiety, trauma, and low self-esteem. I have worked as a social worker and as a therapist in many different settings including county adult services, crisis stabilization, and private practice therapy.

My counseling style is empathetic and collaborative. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, solution-focused, and acceptance and commitment therapy. I am a good listener and find that when people feel free to talk about what is bothering them, we can collaboratively come to solutions.

It takes courage to seek counseling and if you are ready, I am here to help.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
