Hi, I’m Gabriella Puleo-Carrigan, PhD

Psychology Resident | Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern

My Approach

I take a warm, direct, and supportive approach to therapy. I believe in therapy, your way: I’ll challenge you, hold you accountable, and provide real feedback while keeping your needs and preferences in mind. Think of me as someone in your corner: helping you navigate your struggles gently, but willing to give a little tough love when it’s needed.

I’m a clinical psychologist and mental health counseling intern based in Tampa, Florida. My passion is helping adults navigate life transitions, build self-worth, strengthen boundaries, and create meaningful, sustainable changes in their lives.

I specialize in helping adults with:

  • Major life transitions

  • Relationship endings, breakups, and divorce

  • Struggles with self-worth and boundary-setting

  • Making meaningful, sustainable health behavior changes

When I’m not in session, you’ll probably find me:

  • Collecting shells along the Gulf Coast beaches 🏖️

  • Checking out local coffee shops ☕️🥐

  • Exploring Florida with my three amazing daughters 👧👧👧

  • Taking care of my plants 🌴🌺
