About Genna
Genna draws on seven years of clinical experience that include work in the substance use field and independent practice in Florida. She has led clinical services at a substance abuse facility while maintaining a small practice. That background means she sees both immediate crisis needs and longer-term recovery work.
Her style is warm and straightforward. Sessions often involve setting clear goals, practical strategies, and homework to try between meetings. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to identify patterns and build new skills.
Genna also uses trauma-focused methods, including EMDR, when trauma has played a role in a person's life. She pairs trauma work with solution-focused techniques to help people find direction and regain stability after difficult events.
She describes her clinical approach as nonjudgmental and culturally aware. Genna works with people on a range of life challenges - from mood and eating issues to relationship and family concerns - and supports clients in taking the next steps toward change.
How certain approaches are used in online therapy
Genna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into clear parts so people can practice different ways of thinking and act differently in daily life.She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, for trauma work when memories and past events continue to cause distress. EMDR aims to reduce the intensity of painful memories so they interfere less with current life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, current struggles, and preferences, then suggest methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. It can also let people try different therapy tools in their everyday environments while still working with a licensed professional to track progress.
