About Genna
Genna describes her style as warm and direct. She encourages clients to set clear goals and try practical steps between sessions. She draws on several approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs, and she focuses on real-world change rather than long theory talks.
Her background includes substantial work in the substance abuse and addiction field and private practice. That experience informs her work with people dealing with drug and alcohol problems, relapse concerns, and cross-addictions. She also supports those facing mood disorders, trauma, and complicated family or relationship dynamics.
Genna uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-focused work to guide sessions. She aims to help clients build coping skills, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and move toward specific goals like improved sleep, healthier relationships, or reduced substance use.
People who choose her can expect a straightforward, encouraging approach that balances empathy with practical steps. She welcomes international clients and tailors plans to the situation and goals each person brings to therapy.
How Genna’s approaches translate to online care
Genna draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR as part of her work. CBT focuses on noticing thought and behavior patterns and practicing new skills to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address sleep or eating concerns. EMDR is used in trauma-focused work to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up day to day. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For people managing caregiving, work, or a tight schedule, that flexibility can help keep momentum toward goals without changing life routines.
