About Quencina

Quencina Gardner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with six years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and depression. She explains concerns plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.

Gardner uses several psychotherapy approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered work, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) methods. Sessions look at thoughts, habits, and small behavior changes that can reduce distress. She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas where helpful to discuss meaning and patterns.

People often come for help with major life changes, caregiving strain, blended family issues, or problems tied to a family of origin. Other focus areas include attachment struggles, codependency, communication and control issues, substance concerns, and aging or geriatric matters. Gardner speaks English and practices in Georgia.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions are a chance to notice unhelpful thoughts, test different responses, and build coping skills. Conversation and skill-practice are balanced so people leave with concrete next steps.

Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location. To start, select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Quencina Gardner uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try specific behavioral experiments. CBT work often involves setting small, observable goals and practicing new responses between sessions to reduce anxiety or lift mood.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s concerns and pacing. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people clarify what matters to them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements add practical skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and sharpening communication.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Gardner will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she revisits that plan as needs change.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or make it possible to join from a quieter location. Discuss format and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire and plan your first session.
