About Genny
Genny has about 10 years of experience that includes work as a team-based therapist and case manager in community mental health. That background includes supporting people through substance use concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and caregiver stress. She has also worked with people exploring gender identity and sexual orientation and with a range of mood and relationship issues.
Her counseling style is person-centered and proactive. After two initial sessions she focuses on active therapeutic work, teaching skills and techniques people can use outside sessions. She mixes methods drawn from cognitive-behavioral, acceptance and commitment, attachment-based, and dialectical approaches to match each person’s goals.
Genny describes sessions as nonjudgmental and respectful, and she aims to help people set their own pace and goals. She offers weekday and weekend times, including daytime and evening hours, to make scheduling easier.
To begin, she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Her work supports a wide range of concerns, including chronic health and caregiving stresses, so clients navigating illness or long-term conditions can bring those challenges into therapy.

How these approaches guide online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic health challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to change those patterns, which often helps with mood, sleep, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns and can be useful for intimacy, grief, and relationship-related concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on how things are going. The client’s preferences and everyday needs help guide which techniques are emphasized.
Confirm the available session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments outside standard business hours. It also makes short check-ins or skills practice simpler to schedule when time is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for use between sessions so progress continues beyond the video or phone meeting.
