About Gina
Her style is grounded in a humanistic, client-centered stance. That means conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her, and Gina listens for each person’s values and goals. She blends mindfulness and cognitive behavioral ideas into sessions to help people build clearer thinking and healthier routines.
Gina commonly helps people coping with divorce, loss, major illness, career shifts, low self-esteem, family problems, postpartum depression, and addiction-related concerns. She also works with grief, intimacy questions, sleep and eating struggles, caregiver stress, and mood disorders among other concerns.
Sessions mix reflective conversation with practical tools. Gina uses mindfulness practices, breathing and grounding techniques, thought-challenging exercises, and goal-focused planning. She encourages small, manageable steps and regular review of progress.
Outside of her clinical work she values family time, walking, yoga, and a long meditation practice. That personal experience with mindfulness informs how she guides people toward steadier day-to-day routines and clearer priorities.
How Gina Uses Approaches Online and in Session
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people reconnect with what matters to them. It supports personal choice and self-directed goals and often helps with low self-esteem, life purpose questions, and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving interactions with others. It offers practical tools for coping with intense feelings, anger, and relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gina will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest a mix of methods. That choice is collaborative and can change as needs shift over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time for appointments.
