About Gigi
Gigi Muir is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor with 28 years of experience in mental health and addiction work. She brings a calm, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on practical ways to move forward. Many people seek her help for anxiety, depression, addiction, and life changes.
Over nearly three decades she has worked both in addiction treatment and at a community mental health agency. That mix gave her exposure to a range of concerns from mood disorders to family and relationship stress.
Background and approach
She uses straightforward methods aimed at clear progress rather than long lists of theory. In sessions she listens closely and helps people set achievable goals. She leans toward solution-focused strategies while drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered listening.
Mindfulness and motivational approaches are also part of her work when they fit a person’s needs. Clients can expect a relaxed tone and a collaborative pace. Conversations often include identifying small changes, practicing new skills, and tracking what helps between meetings.
She aims to make coping with anxiety, panic, or life transitions feel more manageable. Gigi also addresses related concerns such as communication problems, codependency, and substance use. She supports people dealing with grief, shame, and identity stressors, and offers guidance around parenting and career questions.
Her experience includes working with mood disorders and trauma-related issues. Sessions are conducted in English from Ohio. Gigi emphasizes clear steps and practical tools so people can return to daily life with greater confidence and direction.
How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and respected; the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps people name what matters most. This approach is useful when the primary need is support, empathy, and clearer personal direction rather than a fixed treatment plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic, mood concerns, and problem-solving around daily stressors.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment through simple awareness practices. It can help reduce rumination, ease anxiety, and make coping skills feel more usable in stressful moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences and will adjust strategies over time if needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, step-by-step guidance, or ongoing accountability between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to practice new skills where they arise.
