Gina Porter, LCSW

Gina Porter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of experience working across inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, substance abuse programs, and private practice. She brings depth of experience treating depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, parenting concerns, self-esteem struggles, career challenges, bipolar disorder, and the many adjustments life can bring. Her practice also addresses codependency, drug and alcohol addiction, eating and food-related issues, family of origin matters, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder.

She creates a nonjudgmental, empowering space where clients can express difficult feelings and begin the work of resolving them. Treatment is individualized to each person and proceeds at a pace that feels manageable, with an emphasis on practical coping skills and insight. Gina works collaboratively to identify sources of shame, guilt, fear, or anger and to develop new strategies that reduce stress, improve mood, and strengthen relationships.

Humbled by the opportunity to partner with individuals facing life challenges, she focuses on helping people discover their strengths, make sense of their histories, and move toward lasting change. As an LCSW - a license that denotes advanced training and clinical social work credentials - she combines clinical approaches with compassionate support to help clients build the life they deserve.
