About Gina
Gina DeGuzman is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and work or money worries. She brings 12 years of clinical experience in Florida and aims to give practical tools people can use right away. Her sessions are direct and interactive.
Gina listens first, then helps people name what matters most to them. She focuses on short-term skills like coping strategies and mood management alongside deeper conversations about life purpose and healing from past hurt.
How Gina works
Gina uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on the client’s goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas guide work on change and goal-setting. Narrative techniques help people reframe their stories when trauma, family conflict, or cultural issues feel overwhelming. The overall tone is warm, practical, and goal oriented.
People can expect clear, achievable steps after a session. Gina emphasizes communication skills, forgiveness when it fits, and ways to manage anger, ADHD symptoms, bipolar mood shifts, or life changes. She works in English and practices in Florida as an LCSW.

Online support options
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals at the center of each session and encourages the therapist to follow the client’s pace and priorities. This helps when someone needs a listening space to sort values, identity, or family and cultural concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It teaches practical steps to shift unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood management.
Motivational Interviewing focuses on what drives change and helps people find their own reasons to move forward. It works well when someone feels stuck about career moves, lifestyle shifts, or difficult decisions like separation or forgiveness.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and life demands, then try methods that match those needs. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what is or isn’t helping.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth or who need a quieter option. Live chat and text messaging can support short check-ins, homework, or when a written note fits better into a busy day. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into work, school, or parenting routines.
