About Gina
Gina Sinito is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Ohio. She has 23 years of counseling experience and approaches sessions with a human-centered, client-focused attitude. Gina emphasizes honest, respectful conversation and supports people who are ready to make changes in their lives.
Her style is warm and direct. She listens first and then helps clients identify practical steps they can try. Mindfulness and cognitive behavioral tools are part of her work when they fit the person’s needs. Gina often helps people managing anxiety and depression and those facing life transitions such as divorce, loss, or career changes.
She also addresses concerns related to relationships, grief, caregiving stress, addiction, and self-esteem. Gina pulls from emotion-focused ideas when relationship or intimacy issues are central. She uses dialectical skills for strong emotions and to teach coping strategies for intense stress.
Gina combines short-term skill-building with longer conversations about meaning and purpose when clients want that. She draws on meditation and mindfulness in sessions and may suggest exercises to practice between meetings. Sessions focus on what the client needs now and on setting realistic next steps.
Outside of clinical work she spends time with family, walks, practices yoga, and meditates. Those personal interests influence her calm, steady approach in sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete an intake and schedule a time to talk with her about their goals.

How Gina’s approaches guide online care
Gina works from client-centered and cognitive behavioral perspectives, and she also uses dialectical behavior ideas when helpful. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience, helping clients feel heard so they can discover their own next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance strategies that help when feelings feel overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which tools to try first. The plan can change as progress is made or new concerns arise.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Many people find remote work helps fit therapy into a busy life, such as taking a shorter check-in during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Online meetings can make it easier to practice mindfulness exercises between sessions and to use written tools for CBT homework. Ask about scheduling options and how Gina structures online sessions to match your daily routine.
