Hi, I’m Gina.

Change can feel raw, disorienting and deeply vulnerable. It takes courage, humility and a robust sense of humor to embrace it. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded in themselves, with greater clarity, self-awareness and self-compassion.   

As your therapist, I can hold space for whatever comes into the room with you. Together, we can safely explore, organize and integrate. My approach is collaborative, emotionally attuned, trauma-informed and affirming of neurodivergence, spirituality and diverse ways of experiencing the world.

Clinical Experience

My understanding of the human experience was shaped through decades as a journalist. I sat with the celebrated and scandalized, the oppressed and the predatory, working to understand how they made sense of their lives.

After becoming a mother, I began to make meaning of my past through memoir writing, astrology and deep transformational work. 

As an astrologer and transformational coach, I supported hundreds of clients navigating relationship struggles, identity shifts and major life transitions.

Now, as a clinical intern completing a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Lipscomb University, I use evidence-based approaches to help clients work through attachment wounds, family-of-origin dynamics, relational patterns and trauma.  

Clinical Specialties

My areas of special clinical interest include: adult children of emotionally immature or personality-disordered parents; neurodivergent couples and families; women healing from relational or sexual trauma; midlife identity shifts, perimenopause, and menopause; codependency, attachment wounds, and spiritual identity.
