About Gigi
Across her career she has spent many years supporting people with addiction concerns and also worked a decade at a community mental health agency. That mix of settings shaped her approach to common worries like anxiety, depression, and adjusting to life changes. She also helps with stress, parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and mood-related struggles.
Her sessions emphasize problem-solving and building skills that fit into day-to-day life. She uses familiar, straightforward methods so people can try ideas between meetings and notice small improvements. Gigi also brings mindfulness and motivational strategies into her work when they suit the person.
People who prefer a relaxed, practical counselor often find her style approachable. She helps clients sort priorities, make plans, and take steps toward more steady coping. Pregnancy and childbirth is listed among her focus areas, and she can address related concerns alongside other life and mood challenges.
Gigi works in English and practices in Ohio as an LPCC. She aims to partner with each person to set realistic, measurable goals and to track progress in ways that feel useful and achievable.
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy means she focuses on each person's experience and priorities, listening first and then helping shape goals that matter to the client. This approach is useful for people who want someone to reflect back what they are going through and help them decide what to work on next.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and mood concerns by giving clear strategies to try between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention and grounding exercises into counseling to reduce reactivity and improve stress management. It can be paired with other methods to support coping during life transitions, including pregnancy and childbirth related worries.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and then recommend approaches or mix methods to match what the person wants to try. That collaboration helps set realistic steps and track progress over time.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking since options are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what will fit your routine and comfort.
