About Gabriel Most

Gabriel Most, LCSW, is a New York-based therapist with more than 25 years of experience supporting people through meaningful change. He earned his social work degree from CUNY Hunter College in New York and later completed a nursing degree at the Phillips Beth Israel School of Nursing in 2012. This training informs a mind-body perspective that emphasizes how emotional wellbeing can shape daily choices, relationships, and overall health. He views mental and physical health as closely connected, and he works with clients to strengthen that connection in ways that support growth over time.

Much of his work has centered on concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, and addictions, as well as LGBTQ+ issues. He also frequently helps young adults who are navigating relationships, trauma, and career-related stressors. He recognizes that beginning therapy can feel like a big step, and he approaches the process as a collaborative partnership grounded in compassion, commitment, and trust.

Gabriel adapts his approach to each person’s goals and situation, drawing from behavioral modification strategies, psychodynamic perspectives, mind-body techniques, crisis intervention, and existential therapy. He emphasizes a non-judgmental space where clients can speak openly and feel understood, while keeping the work oriented toward practical movement and solutions. Guided by the spirit of “Carpe Diem,” he encourages clients to invest in themselves in the present and take steps toward the life they want to build.

Online Therapy Grounded in Practical Tools and Deeper Meaning

Gabriel Most draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can be adapted for online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practicing more effective responses. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and day-to-day coping challenges.

Existential Therapy makes space for questions about meaning, values, and life direction, especially during periods of grief, change, or uncertainty. It can help clients clarify what matters most and make choices that align with their sense of purpose. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes building awareness of thoughts, emotions, and body sensations in the present moment, which can support steadier reactions and more intentional decision-making when life feels overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gabriel works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then adjusts the pace and tools accordingly.

Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Sessions can take place through video calls or phone, and support may be available through live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to stay consistent, get support between sessions, and fit therapy into a busy schedule.
