About Georgianne
Georgianne Nacionales is a licensed clinical social worker who brings eight years of post-degree clinical experience to therapy.

Background and approach
Over a broader career in social services she has supported people across the lifespan and has spent many years focused on relationship and family dynamics. Sessions begin as a conversation. Georgianne listens closely to what matters most to the client and then tailors the work to those priorities.
She emphasizes strengths, practical skills, and small changes that add up over time. You will be invited to try approaches that match your goals and preferences rather than following a rigid plan. Her clinical toolkit includes mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, acceptance-based ideas, and skills from dialectical behavior approaches.
She also uses client-centered methods that keep the client's voice central to the work. These tools are applied to concerns like anxiety, grief, mood challenges, and parenting stress. Georgianne aims to help people feel more empowered and able to handle day-to-day challenges.
She focuses on clear, doable steps and on building confidence to manage relationships, parenting, and life transitions. The first step is a simple conversation to see what feels most important to address.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and values-driven action. It helps people reduce the hold of anxious thoughts and move toward what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to calm the nervous system and increase awareness of triggers.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist starts by asking about your goals, worries, and daily routines, and then suggests a mix of strategies to try. You and the therapist check in on what is helping and adjust the plan together so it fits your needs and preferences.
Online sessions make these approaches more flexible. Video calls allow live skill coaching and role play, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging lets people check in between meetings or use shorter touchpoints during a busy day. These options help fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools for anxiety, coping, and relationship challenges.
