About Gina
Gina Mumey is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of experience helping adults navigate difficult life changes. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, caregiving strain, and changes in relationships. Gina invites clients to name their goals and then collaborates on a clear plan to reach them.
Gina uses a strengths-based outlook and encourages small, realistic changes. She listens first and then helps people decide whether they want space to process or a more structured path forward.
Background and approach
That can mean practicing new coping skills or replacing habits that no longer serve well, such as smoking, drinking, or overeating. Her background includes a degree in gerontology and focused training in behaviors and cognitive care for older adults and people with dementia. She has also led grief support groups and supported people facing many kinds of loss.
Those experiences shaped her practical, calm approach to care. Her practice blends Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, mindfulness work, and hypnotherapy techniques as tools to meet individual needs. Gina explains approaches plainly and uses whichever methods fit a person’s goals and preferences.
Sessions are conversational but goal-oriented. Gina helps people build healthier routines, manage strong emotions, and set manageable steps toward change. She aims to create a steady, respectful space where clients can try different ways of coping and see what works for them.

How Gina Uses Narrative and ACT Online
Gina often uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe the stories they carry. This approach looks at how life events and roles shape self-view and offers ways to notice different pieces of a story and choose what to emphasize. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills for living with difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward valued goals. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gina talks with each person about their goals and tries methods that fit those aims. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most, making decisions in collaboration with the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text work well for steady check-ins, quick coping ideas, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and different locations.
