I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Work from Bloomsburg University in 2003 and my Master of Science degree in Social Work from the Columbia University School of Social Work in 2006. I worked in HIV services in central Pennsylvania and the Bronx, New York in the 2000s before completing PhD course work and candidacy at The Ohio State University College of Social Work. Post PhD candidacy, I have been providing counseling services and mental health treatment and established a private practice in 2018. I enjoy working with kids, teens and adults to be helpful with addressing mental health challenges and finding effective strategies for improving quality of life. I have extensive experience in treating trauma, depression and anxiety, among other mental health challenges. I proudly support LGBQTIA+ and neurodiverse individuals and communities.

First session

I often like to start by asking follow up questions about the information you included in your intake form.

Strengths

I consider providing mental health treatment to be a privilege and an honor. I take very seriously hearing other people's most vulnerable thoughts and feelings and want everyone with whom I meet to feel heard, respected and supported.

Ideal clients

I work with people who experience a variety of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD and trauma-related challenges. I also specialize in working with people with chronic health conditions and survivors of childhood sexual abuse.

I've had sessions with Gina for a little over 2 years. From the beginning, Gina has always provided a safe space for me to share and speak what was on my mind during some of the hardest times in my life. I genuinely appreciate and value her and her work. I've seen the progress that I've made during my sessions with Gina and I'm grateful for the time she has given me and eager for the progress ahead.

I've been so scared to go to therapy again because of a bad experience I had with a therapy center years ago, but as soon as I started my session with Gina, I saw myself going to therapy again. She is so nice, caring, genuine, a great listener, helpful and much more. I am looking forward to my next therapy session.
