About Gina
Gina Mumey is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of practice. She helps adults navigate anxiety, stress, grief, depression, and life changes. Gina emphasizes listening first and learning what each person needs before making a plan.
Her style is straightforward and strengths-based. She asks clients to name their goals and then works alongside them to reach those goals. Some people come for a sounding board while others want a step-by-step plan toward recovery, and Gina adapts to both needs.
Background and approach
Gina has a background in gerontology and extra training in advanced behaviors and cognitive care. That experience means she has spent substantial time supporting people facing dementia and the people close to them. She has also led grief support groups and assisted people who are coping with loss.
In sessions she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, mindfulness, hypnotherapy, and motivational interviewing. She uses those tools to build healthier coping skills and reduce reliance on habits that no longer serve clients, such as smoking, drinking, or overeating. Gina invites practical, gradual changes rather than quick fixes.
She encourages collaboration on a treatment plan and gives focused attention to what each person is experiencing. Gina aims to help people find manageable steps toward a more rewarding, fulfilling life.
How Gina’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values even when anxiety or painful feelings appear. ACT can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore concerns at their own pace; it often supports people dealing with grief, low mood, or self-esteem issues. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood by learning to notice thoughts and sensations without getting swept away.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Gina collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She will check in regularly and adjust the plan if something feels unhelpful or a different technique might be better.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets people work face to face when needed. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier if being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text-based messaging allows shorter check-ins, notes between sessions, and flexible communication when schedules are tight.
