About Georgiana

Georgiana Robertson is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Virginia with 19 years of experience. She grounds her work in cognitive behavioral therapy while also drawing on acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness techniques to help clients develop practical skills and clearer perspectives.

Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes strength-building, practical coping strategies, and compassionate support tailored to each person's situation. She regularly assists people facing relationship struggles, grief, addictions, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety and stress, and challenges related to self-esteem, career, parenting, or life transitions.

Georgiana also addresses trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and a range of eating and body image issues, as well as a broad set of related concerns including caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, and communication problems. Georgiana works with individuals and couples, encouraging boundary setting, self-care, and realistic goal setting as part of the healing process.

Clients can expect a warm, supportive style that balances empathy with practical interventions. She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and partners with people to navigate difficult situations while promoting sustainable coping and personal growth.

Online Therapy Using Practical, Evidence-Informed Approaches

Georgiana commonly integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance and commitment strategies into online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood, and stress. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so clients can pursue meaningful goals even while uncomfortable feelings are present.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; Georgiana partners with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She blends skill-building, mindfulness practice, and solution-focused planning as appropriate, and adjusts techniques over time based on what is most helpful for the individual or couple.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and fit therapy into busy lives. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice new skills between meetings, and access support from home or other convenient locations.
