From Overthinking to Feeling at Home in Yourself
If you’re the one everyone leans on, the one who overthinks, over-prepares, and says “I’m fine” when you’re not, you’re in the right place. I’m Gabby, an art therapist and trauma therapist in Dublin, PA and virtually across Pennsylvania. I work with women in their 20s through 50s who are tired of just coping.
You might know exactly why you feel the way you do and still not feel relief. You don’t have to figure it all out alone, and you definitely don’t have to do it perfectly. Together, we’ll go gently, at your pace, with a little creativity and a lot of kindness.

Hi, I’m Gabby.
GABBY SLIFKIN, LPC, ATR-BC | ART THERAPIST AND TRAUMA THERAPIST FOR WOMEN IN DUBLIN, PA AND VIRTUALLY ACROSS PENNSYLVANIA
I’ve known I wanted to do this work since high school, when I discovered art therapy and realized I could blend creativity with compassion. Today I’m also an EMDR Certified Therapist and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, with a Master’s in Community and Trauma Counseling (Art Therapy specialization) from Thomas Jefferson University. And I know from personal experience how loud anxiety can get.
Here, you’ll find a safe, no-judgment space where you set the pace and nobody grades your drawings. I believe you already hold the wisdom to heal, and my job is to guide you and keep things gentle. My office is a cozy mix of thrift-store finds and old and new touches, more living room than office, so you can settle in and be yourself. Prefer to meet from home? I also offer virtual therapy across Pennsylvania.
Three Values Behind Every Session
At Creative Path to Healing and The Deeper Path, I believe you don’t have to be fixed, only supported. Therapy works best when you feel safe, understood, and free to go at your own pace, whether that means talking, drawing, or sitting quietly for a minute. Three values shape every session.

Creativity
Through art, body awareness, and getting to know the different parts of you, you’ll find new ways to connect your mind and body. No art skills needed.
HOW WE CREATE CHANGE
Depth
We go beyond managing symptoms to understand what’s underneath, so change can last.

You don’t have to have it all figured out to reach out
