About Gina

Gina Licursi is an Ohio-licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related concerns. She brings eight years of professional experience to her practice and emphasizes a strengths-based view that recognizes each person as the expert of their own story.

Background and approach

Gina creates a warm, accepting, and nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore challenges and build practical skills. Her work includes attention to addictions, LGBT-related issues, parenting stress, self-esteem, and coping with major life changes, as well as additional focus on domestic violence, post-traumatic stress, and sexual assault and abuse.

Gina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a central framework to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete strategies for change. Prospective clients can expect collaborative goal-setting and steady support as they practice new ways of responding to difficult situations.

CBT-informed care and practical online therapy

Gina integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice, helping clients notice and shift unhelpful thought patterns while learning concrete coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and is useful for managing symptoms and building problem-solving skills.

She approaches treatment collaboratively, working with each person to identify goals and select techniques that fit their needs and preferences. Finding the right method is part of the process, and she will help clients try approaches, evaluate progress, and adjust plans together so therapy stays relevant and useful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options can make it easier to maintain regular appointments and to access support from home or work, while allowing for practical, skills-based work between sessions.
