About me

When Human beings experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My great passion is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/ stressful experience. I help my clients, who include children, adults and families, to find healthy perceptions of them and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves as peaceful, complete, whole and safe. I am a Fully Licensed Professional Counselor and a Houston Native, rooted in social work/ counseling for 15 plus years. My educational background includes a MS in Educational Counseling and MA in Marriage and Family Counseling
I know that no single approach is the right one for every individual, and so I have been trained in a range of modalities including relational Gestalt Therapy, shame and emotional resilience therapeutic methods, existentialism approach to the treatment of trauma as well as Trauma focused CBT

I feel like I’m growing into myself with Gina’s help. I am not vulnerable generally bc I don’t feel safe but when I’m talking to Gina I feel validated that it’s ok to have feelings and feel pain. I’m thankful to have met her

Gina is the first therapist I've ever met with that seems to actually listen to what's been happening with me and responds to me as an individual instead of with something generic or out of a textbook. I feel seen and cared about with Gina and that's letting me start to care about myself too. She's truly incredible.

I highly recommend Gina to anyone that needs a therapist who is mindful of your feelings and emotions. She answers my messages in a timely manner. She's knowledgeable about the things that I need help with. She recommends books and materials that helps along my journey

She is a great therapist and have been such a help to me. I didn’t even know I had any issues that she had mentioned to me but now I am aware. I recommend her all day everyday. She not only tries to understand you but connect to you as well.

Gina makes me feel so supported! She helps me come up with creative solutions to my problems. Our appointments have become something I really look forward to which is something I wouldn't have thought about therapy.

So far, Gina is incredibly uplifting, pleasant, and relatable. She always has suggestions for what to do in response to how my week has been, but she is also great at reminding me to go at my own pace and not push myself too hard when things get stressful. It's a great balance and I look forward to working with her more to find that sweet spot of fulfillment and peace in my life!

Work with me!
