About Gina
Gina Gross is a LICSW licensed in Washington with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ concerns, family tension, and major life changes. Her approach is straightforward and practical. She encourages people to take a first step and complete the initial matching questionnaire to schedule a session.
Gina uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other evidence-based methods to help people identify and name strong feelings. She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors that keep problems stuck. Sessions focus on noticing patterns that fuel anxiety or isolation and then trying small, manageable shifts.
In conversation she listens for how attachment and connection show up in relationships. That helps when communication problems, control issues, or separation bring repeated conflict. For concerns like panic attacks or post-traumatic stress, she works with breathing, grounding, and stepwise coping skills as needed to reduce immediate overwhelm.
People who are carrying guilt, shame, or difficulty forgiving themselves or others can work on building clearer emotional language and new responses. Gina also supports people exploring life purpose, self-love, and moving through loneliness. She keeps sessions direct and practical, with a focus on what can change week to week.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Gina uses EFT, ACT and CBT in online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with intense feelings that show up in close relationships and daily life. It focuses on identifying emotional patterns and learning new ways to respond when emotions feel overwhelming.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful cycles.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gina will talk with each person about what feels most useful and adapt sessions based on their goals and preferences. That way the focus can shift from immediate coping to longer term patterns when it makes sense.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full hour is not needed. Many people find remote sessions help them practice new skills in the context of everyday life.
