Background and approach
Her background includes leadership in a substance abuse facility and ongoing independent practice work in Florida. In sessions she uses approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. She helps clients identify patterns, set goals, and practice new skills.
Conversations are aimed at small, achievable shifts rather than abstract theories. Genna pays attention to cultural differences and adapts her style to each person she meets. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk honestly about setbacks and progress.
Therapy often includes homework and practical tools to try between meetings. Clients can expect direct feedback, encouragement, and collaborative planning. Genna emphasizes safety and pacing when working on difficult memories or addiction issues.
She supports people who want clearer boundaries, better coping skills, and steady recovery.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Genna often uses cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps people process upsetting memories and reduce their emotional intensity.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences, and preferences to choose methods that fit each person's needs. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan based on what works best in sessions and between meetings.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or handling moments between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while working with licensed professionals.
