About Gigi

Gigi Holder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Mississippi with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or struggling with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with relationship and parenting concerns.

She focuses on practical changes that affect daily life. Gigi draws on work in healthy behavior therapy to guide choices about exercise, sleep, and routines. She talks with people about small habits that can add up to noticeable change.

Her approach centers on listening to each person's story and building on existing strengths. She uses methods that encourage noticing thought patterns and trying new responses. Sessions often include straightforward tools to reduce anxious thinking and lift mood.

Gigi also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how close relationships influence feelings and behavior. Motivational interviewing is part of her work when people want to make a specific change, like quitting smoking or improving self-care.

She offers help with body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and finding life purpose. Gigi is also experienced with workplace issues and women’s health topics. She works in English and practices in Mississippi.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions run on a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How CBT, attachment work, and online sessions fit together

Gigi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT gives clear steps to try between meetings, which can make daily tasks feel more manageable.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape emotional reactions. That approach helps when communication problems, isolation, or relationship stress are involved. Client-centered principles guide conversations so the person’s own goals lead the work rather than a fixed plan.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Gigi will review goals, preferences, and the problem’s context and then suggest methods to try. People and therapist adjust the plan based on what is working and what needs change over time.

Session formats should be confirmed before booking as the original biography does not list specific online options. Ask about current session types so arrangements fit your schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, reduce travel, or use shorter check-ins when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep work practical and focused on everyday steps.
