Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Gina DeGuzman

Gina DeGuzman uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals and experiences guide the work. This approach emphasizes active listening and collaboration, helping people clarify what matters most and build self-directed solutions.

CBT teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns by testing and reframing thoughts and trying new coping strategies.

Motivational Interviewing is another tool she may use to support readiness for change; it focuses on strengthening a person’s own motivation and drawing out their reasons for taking steps forward. Together these approaches offer both empathetic support and concrete techniques. Gina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Gina is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels.
