Hi, I'm Gena, a Licensed Counselor Candidate with a deep commitment to supporting individuals through life’s challenges and helping them build a path toward personal fulfillment. I take a full look at your life in my approach to therapy, considering how society, work, and your social life can impact their ability to find happiness, voice, and meaning.

I have a strong interest in supporting individuals in the LGBTQ+ community and those dealing with mood disorders, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and neurodiversity. I also enjoy working with people who are simply seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their life’s direction who may not know why they are seeking counseling but feel like they could use a space to process their world. With a background as an advocate for survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking, I am especially passionate about working with those who have experienced trauma and helping them reclaim their sense of agency and peace.

My approach is compassionate and client-centered, with an emphasis on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions, develop coping strategies, and work towards the healing and growth that you deserve. Together, we can navigate the obstacles you face and move toward a more authentic life where YOU get to determine and work towards what is meaningful and significant!
