About Gina
Gina Todd is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people handle strong emotions and get unstuck. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical skills you can use between sessions.
She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and anger.

Parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles are also part of her work.
Background and approach
Gina pairs problem-solving with real-world tools. She helps clients spot unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and practice small changes that add up. Sessions are conversational and aimed at building skills that fit day-to-day life.
She holds LCSW credentials in both Louisiana and New York and draws on 22 years of clinical work when shaping treatment. Gina adapts plans to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Gina offers sessions in English and provides several online formats.

CBT tools and flexible online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change how you feel. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress because it breaks problems into clear steps you can practice.Gina emphasizes learning practical skills in sessions and using them outside sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose techniques and a pace that match their goals and preferences.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let someone send updates or get brief support between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum while working toward change.
