About Gina

Gina Sinito is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Ohio and Florida with 23 years of experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and related concerns such as grief, relationship strain, and stress. Gina uses a straightforward, person-focused approach and draws on mindfulness and CBT strategies to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping.

Her work emphasizes authenticity and practical steps. Sessions are conversational and focused on specific problems the person brings. Gina listens for what matters most, then suggests small, manageable changes to thoughts and routines that can reduce distress and increase daily functioning.

She often blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered methods and elements from dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work. That mix supports both skill-building and deeper reflection on values and relationships. Mindfulness practice is used regularly to help with emotional regulation and attention.

Gina commonly helps people navigating divorce, career shifts, postpartum challenges, caregiving stress, and substance concerns. She also supports issues like body image, grief, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Her practice includes work related to mood disorders, ADHD, and eating or sleeping difficulties.

Sessions follow a practical rhythm: identify a problem, try strategies in-session, and plan real-world experiments between meetings. People who prefer clear steps and regular tools to manage thoughts and behaviors may find this approach helpful.

How her approaches translate to online work

Gina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in straightforward ways online, helping people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different responses with practical exercises. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and behavior patterns because it focuses on what to change and how to practice new skills.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person's perspective and goals. That approach keeps sessions focused on what the person says matters most and supports collaborative problem selection. Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements may be used to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when strong emotions are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gina will discuss problems, options, and preferred methods together and adjust the plan as progress and needs become clearer. This is a collaborative process that balances skills practice with attention to values and relationship issues.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
