Hi - I'm Gina, a licensed LCSW in Illinois with 15 years of professional work experience and a MSW from the University of Chicago. I have experience in helping clients (teens and adults) with stress, anxiety, chronic illnesses, midlife crisis, trauma, abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I use several treatment modalities to include Cognitive Behavioral, Trauma Informed Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Counseling. I also offer clinical supervision.
As a therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, families, and
individuals, I use a trauma-informed, client-centered approach.
Seasons change and so do we. I believe that strong relationships are the foundation of meaningful change. With experience in schools, hospitals, and community mental health, I create a supportive space where you feel seen and heard. Using a person-centered approach, CBT, and mindfulness, I’ll help you reframe thoughts, set goals, and build tools for lasting growth.
I graduated from EVMS with my degree in Art Therapy and Counseling in 2016, and since then have worked with a variety of different people in many different settings. My approach is collaborative and eclectic - I feel we are all on a path of growth, healing, and self discovery and that therapy can truly help this process along.
Welcome, I'm glad you're here. I wear many different hats and enjoy working with adolescents and adults to address low self esteem, communication, anxious thoughts, scattered mind, or boundary setting. I also enjoy working with individuals who may be struggling with financial stress, career fulfillment and burnout, as I believe this is inextricable linked to mental health and wellbeing. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to support you.
I have a passion for working with adolescents and their families, as well as both younger and older adults individually. I enjoy working with clientele from diverse backgrounds and I strive to create a culturally sensitive, inclusive and affirming space.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Sterling
Searching for therapists in Sterling starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to discuss. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In Sterling, local therapy options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas, so virtual appointments can help expand your search across Virginia. You may want a counseling office near you, a therapist with evening availability, or someone who offers a free phone consultation before the first session. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for details about availability, session format, communication style, and whether they are accepting new patients.
Therapy in Sterling can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual care. You can browse therapists in Sterling, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
