Online support options
CBT-informed care through online sessions
Gina primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an approach that helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related concerns because it focuses on clear strategies and small experiments to change daily routines and thinking patterns.The choice of therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Gina will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then pick or adapt techniques that fit those needs. Together they decide what tools to try and how to measure progress, adjusting as things change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for a full conversational session; phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or have shorter, focused conversations during a break. These options aim to increase flexibility so therapy can be scheduled around work, caregiving, and daily demands.
