About Gigi

Gigi Muir brings nearly three decades of counseling experience to her practice in Ohio.

Background and approach

As an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with 28 years in the field, she has spent significant time working with people affected by addiction and also dedicated a decade to a community mental health agency.

Her background gives her a broad perspective on issues such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life adjustments, along with experience addressing a range of concerns from relationship and family problems to trauma and intimacy-related difficulties. Gigi’s approach is understated and practical; she favors a relaxed, listening-first manner paired with solution-focused work.

She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies and client-centered principles alongside mindfulness and motivational techniques to help clients identify unhelpful patterns and build coping skills. People who value a collaborative, goal-oriented style that balances empathy with concrete tools may find her approach a good match.

Gigi aims to support clients in clarifying goals and taking steps toward meaningful change at a manageable pace.

Approaches and Online Options for Practical Growth



Gigi commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression and to improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client’s experience, offering empathic listening and support so clients can explore their feelings and priorities and find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Gigi collaborates with clients to determine what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She blends structured techniques with a supportive stance so the plan evolves from a shared understanding of what will help most.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which allows for flexibility in scheduling and communication. These options can make it easier to stay consistent with appointments, access care from different locations within Ohio, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for working on stress, addiction-related concerns, mood issues, or everyday life changes.
