About Gina

Gina Mumey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of clinical experience based in Oregon. She works with adults across the age span and addresses concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, stress, anger, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes.

She often helps people who need a steady listener as much as those who want a clear plan. Gina asks clients to name their goals, then collaborates on practical steps to reach them. Sessions can be used to manage sudden events, ongoing stress, or complex, long‑term challenges.

Gina holds a Gerontology degree and has additional training in advanced behaviors and cognitive care. That experience means she has spent significant time supporting older adults and people navigating dementia care, and she has led grief support groups for people facing loss.

Her approach is strengths-based. She looks for existing coping skills and helps people shift away from habits they no longer want, such as smoking, drinking, or overeating, toward healthier options. She balances listening with goal-focused planning so progress is concrete and measurable.

Gina uses an array of methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and hypnotherapy where appropriate. She works in English and does not take international clients. To begin, clients follow the site steps to match and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How Gina’s approaches translate to online work

Gina uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in sessions to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and take small committed actions that match what matters to them. ACT can help with anger, anxiety, and decisions about how to respond in tense moments.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can clarify goals and choose steps that feel right. That method is useful when someone needs a clear plan or simply a steady, understanding presence while they sort through things.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Gina will discuss options and pick approaches together with the client based on their goals, preferences, and day‑to‑day realities. The process is collaborative and adjusts as needs change.

Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, not needing to travel, or choosing an audio option when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises like mindfulness practice or ACT skills to work well in virtual sessions.
