About Gina
Gina Batliner, LPC, helps people who are overwhelmed by stress and anxiety find steadier footing. She has 25 years of clinical experience and works with adults facing depression, bipolar mood concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD-related struggles, and family stress. Her style is calm and direct, focusing on small, practical steps that make everyday life easier.
Gina combines several proven approaches to meet each person where they are. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and acceptance and commitment strategies to build values-driven action.
Background and approach
Attachment-informed ideas shape how she looks at relationship patterns and emotional safety. Sessions move at a practical pace. Gina helps people set focused goals, try new skills between sessions, and review what works.
She uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when emotional regulation or ambivalence gets in the way of progress. Gina practices in Oregon and holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC. Conversations are plainspoken and aimed at real-world change rather than jargon.
The work centers on collaboration, honesty, and gradual skill-building. People who want to address anxiety, stress, mood shifts, or the effects of trauma will find an approach that balances emotional care with practical tools. Gina supports each person’s pace and choices while guiding them toward clearer coping strategies and steadier days.
Approaches that translate to online work
Gina uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety or depression. CBT focuses on clear, step-by-step skills such as thought records and activity scheduling that translate well to video or text-based work. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which teaches people to notice inner experience without getting stuck and to take actions that match their values. ACT helps when worry or mood hold someone back from everyday goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan together. Gina blends methods based on what helps a person make progress and what fits their day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill teaching and deep conversation. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit those who prefer brief, written check-ins or want to track skills between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and support consistent practice of new skills.
