About Georgina
Georgina Cortez is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and relationship problems. She writes plainly and works with clients to build clearer communication and stronger self-worth. Georgina brings 13 years of clinical experience in California to each session and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She uses straightforward techniques to help clients reduce upsetting reactions and handle conflicts more calmly.
Background and approach
Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviors, and practicing brief skills to shift how people respond in tense moments. Georgina emphasizes small, achievable changes that fit into daily life. Her work also addresses grief, depression, parenting strain, and major life changes.
Georgina helps people sort through family problems and communication breakdowns so they can make better choices in relationships. She encourages self-love and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Georgina blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to tailor work to each person’s needs.
That means she balances looking at thoughts and behavior with finding practical, immediate steps that lead to relief. The approach is collaborative and goal-oriented. Clients can expect clear guidance, gentle challenge, and tools to practice between sessions.
Georgina aims to help people feel more capable of handling everyday stresses and to build healthier ways of connecting with others.

Approaches that fit online therapy
Georgina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people notice patterns that fuel anger or anxiety and then try practical alternatives to change how they feel. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and strengths that help people move toward specific goals quickly.Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they pick the methods and pace that make the most sense for the situation, adjusting as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief coaching, quick skill reminders, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options let people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep work moving forward without in-person visits.
