She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain and aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable.

Gina uses mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions are practical and paced to match each person’s needs.

Gina often works with anxiety and depression and supports people navigating big life changes such as divorce, loss, serious illness, career shifts, and postpartum concerns. She also addresses issues like stress, addiction, grief, intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, and self-esteem. Additional areas of focus include caregiver strain, blended family concerns, substance use, and life purpose.

Clients can expect an empathic, nonjudgmental space where their goals guide the work. Gina draws on meditation and simple mindfulness practices in session when they fit the person's goals.

Outside the therapy room she spends time with family, walks, practices yoga, and meditates. These personal practices inform her steady and patient therapeutic style.

How Gina uses therapy approaches online

Gina combines client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in ways that are clear and practical. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person and honoring their goals, which helps people feel heard and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. These approaches are often used together to address anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gina will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and then recommend ways of working together. She aims to adjust techniques so they fit the person, whether that means more skills practice, more reflective conversation, or both.
