About Gina
She has experience supporting people after unexpected events and those living with severe and persistent mental illness. Much of her background is with older adults - she holds a gerontology degree and has training in advanced behaviors and cognitive care. That experience includes working with people who have dementia and helping their loved ones navigate care decisions.
Gina often leads grief support groups and helps people facing loss, whether through death or other kinds of change. She takes a strengths-based approach, noticing resilience and building on what already works. Her goal is to help people replace old coping habits like smoking, drinking, or overeating with healthier options.
In sessions she balances listening with active planning. Clients are invited to name their goals and then collaborate on steps to reach them. Gina uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs in the moment, from mindfulness practices to motivational strategies.
People who come for anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, or life transitions can expect practical support and steady attention. She emphasizes everyday tools that make living easier and clearer. Gina aims to help people move toward a more rewarding and fulfilling life.

How Gina’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small, value-based steps toward those things. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by encouraging actions that align with personal goals. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience, offering a listening, nonjudgmental presence so clients can find their own solutions and make choices that fit their life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gina will listen to what is most important to a client and suggest techniques that fit their goals and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust as progress is made.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or remove the need to be on camera if that helps someone participate. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and client-centered techniques to work well over distance, using mindfulness exercises, pacing, and goal tracking to keep progress moving.
