About Genevieve
Genevieve Sofranec is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with six years of practice. She works in Ohio and Kentucky and helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and anger. She also supports those coping with changes in life and challenges like addiction and ADHD.
Genevieve switched careers from business management in 2013 and brings that life change into her work. She focuses on clear, practical steps rather than jargon. Sessions emphasize honest talk, problem solving, and building everyday skills.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. That means she may use values-based goal setting, skills practice, thought tracking, and present-moment awareness depending on what a person needs.
She helps people sort through relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, blended-family challenges, adoption and foster care issues, and career stress. She also addresses abandonment, codependency, communication and control problems, and the emotional fallout of chronic illness.
Genevieve describes therapy as collaborative work. She listens for what causes repeated patterns of anger and frustration and focuses on small, sustainable changes. Her practice uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are conducted in English.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. It is useful for anger tied to avoidance, loss, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments and skills practice. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing sudden bursts of anger.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s goals and daily life. That may mean blending ACT and CBT exercises, practicing mindfulness skills between sessions, or using DBT tools when emotional regulation is a main concern.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins on a work break, or reduce the need to travel for appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills coaching to the online setting so clients can practice changes in their everyday routines.
