For carers, Gayle can help untangle caregiver stress and the emotional burden that often comes with caring roles. Conversations can include setting boundaries, managing guilt, and finding manageable routines.

If someone prefers to explore options, she asks them to start with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. This helps shape a plan before therapy begins.
