About Gina
Gina Gross is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who centers Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ-related concerns in a calm, nonjudgmental way. Gina aims to make the first step easier for anyone feeling unsure about reaching out.
She creates a space where feelings and thoughts can be named and examined. Conversations are practical and direct, focused on what is happening in the moment and what changes a person wants to make.
Background and approach
Sessions move at the client's pace and focus on clear, useful steps. Gina draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas guide how she attends to relationships and emotional experience.
These approaches blend to make therapy both emotionally grounded and action oriented. Her work includes support for people coping with life changes, communication problems, control issues, and separation or divorce. She also addresses guilt, shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.
Panic, social anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms are within her focus areas. Gina has eight years of professional experience practicing in Washington. She speaks English and uses practical tools alongside heartfelt listening.
The goal is to leave each session with something you can use that week.

Online support
How emotion-focused and ACT methods work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognize and name strong feelings and how those feelings shape relationships. Online EFT sessions still focus on deep emotional moments and increasing awareness of patterns that cause hurt or disconnection.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts without getting caught in them and to act on personal values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it encourages flexible responses rather than battling every difficult thought.
Gina approaches therapy collaboratively and will help figure out which methods fit best. She works together with each person to set clear goals and choose techniques that match their needs and preferences. Finding the right approach is part of the work, not something decided in advance.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can fit brief check-ins, journaling-style reflection, or quick coping tools between sessions. These options offer flexibility so therapy can fit around work, caregiving, and other life demands.
