About Gina

Gina Dickison is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 22 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, addiction, and life transitions.

Gina has helped individuals and families navigate depression, parenting and adoption concerns, trauma, and the grieving process.

Her clinical skill set includes trauma-focused interventions and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) techniques, along with solution-focused methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Gina’s manner is warm and compassionate while her approach is directive and goal-oriented; she partners with clients to set clear objectives and build practical action plans to move toward desired outcomes. Throughout her career she has worked with issues ranging from attachment and caregiver stress to eating concerns, anger, and career-related difficulties.

Gina frequently checks messages and makes efforts to accommodate clients’ schedules, aiming to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship that supports growth, coping, and recovery.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Gina Dickison draws from several well-established therapeutic approaches that translate effectively to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and coping after trauma. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of connection and relationship dynamics formed in early life and helps clients address abandonment, attachment issues, and family-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gina collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress unfolds so treatment remains practical and tailored.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for those juggling work, caregiving, or geographic constraints. Licensed professionals, including Gina, provide support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage in therapy in ways that fit their schedules and daily lives.
