Gina (She/Her/Hers) is a master’s level therapist who completed her clinical social work studies at the Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research of Bryn Mawr College.

Gina approaches clients with compassion and with deep respect for their strengths. She collaborates with individuals, couples, or groups to identify their specific goals for therapy and to ensure that the therapeutic process empowers them, addresses challenges, and meets their goals. 

Gina brings an openness and curiosity to her sessions with adults throughout the lifespan, helping clients identify what matters most for them and what might be getting in the way of their greater happiness or fulfillment. She supports clients in building new awareness, skills, and practices that facilitate their healing and that they can use throughout their lives.

Gina also recognizes the many forms of trauma that clients may have experienced in their lives, within family systems and in the broader world, including chronic stressors of societal expectations and cultural biases. She explores with clients the effects that trauma and chronic stressors can have on many facets of minds, bodies, spirits, and lives and offers healing.

Gina understands the courage it takes to engage in therapy and creates a safe space, serving as a witness and ally as clients reconnect with the power of their life stories, their emotions, and their capabilities and build toward their desired futures. 

Gina draws on mindfulness practices, psychodynamic practices of exploring unconscious drives and patterns to help clients achieve insight and transformation, and solutions-oriented approaches that help clients make practical changes to enhance their sense of well-being and confidence.

Gina has made a lifelong commitment to her own healing and growth and to supporting the healing and development of others. She has a background in the humanities including narrative theory, decades of experience as a career and leadership development coach, and training as a facilitator of community building and restorative justice circles. Gina is a member of the Pennsylvania Society for Clinical Social Work (PSCSW).
