Geina K Palmer
I am a counselor in Connecticut, I have been practicing as a counselor in the field of mental health and addiction for the past 19 years. I have supervised staff for approximately 15 the 19 years I have been in the field and seek to help patients with mood disorders, family conflicts, marital struggles, spiritual guidance, grief, history of trauma, and mild addiction disorders.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session we will have a brief introduction, review sessions standards, privacy, and mandated reporting. Session will continue with reviewing the difficulties you are facing and goals to address each struggle the patient is facing.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
In the past 19 years, I have worked with patients to find the root cause of their struggles, guiding them to find ways to resolve causes and find a place of healing. Helping patients to find healthy ways to cope, effectively utilizing supports and developing a path of independence or inter-dependence.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
The goal of my practice is to work with patients who are seeking someone to walk along side them in the process of life difficulties to find healing. They are patients who may struggle with how to start but are willing to review ways to cope and seek restoration. Another goal is to be a provider to the ones who are working in the field and need consultation or someone who will walk with them as they journey with other patients.

Geina K. Palmer is kind and genuinely cares about her clients. She engages with me as an individual and tailors our sessions based on what I need. I feel much better after our session and I am gaining useful tools to leverage in my daily life.
