Gina is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, who specializes in the treatment of eating disorders, body image concerns, anxiety disorders and trauma. Gina is interested in working with individuals who have co-morbid diagnoses and has experience working with individuals who struggle with maladaptive coping (self-harm, self-sabotage etc). She incorporates a number of therapeutic techniques including cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, EMDR, and is committed to the Health at Every Size (HAES) principles. Gina also utilizes exposure therapy when appropriate. She collaborates with her client’s multidisciplinary team members such as psychiatrists, medical doctors and dieticians for continuity of care.

She believes through understanding and awareness, clients can move toward becoming their true selves and deeply experience a life worth living. Gina is a non-judgmental therapist, who truly cares about the rapport with her clients while challenging them to push themselves!

Gina has clinical experience working in a psychiatric partial hospitalization program, an eating disorder partial hospitalization program, residential program serving those with traumatic brain injuries, and a collaborative alternative school prior to her work in private practice. She earned my Bachelor’s Degree from Suffolk University, studying Psychology and Education and Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from Simmons College.

She strongly believe in the practice of self-care and enjoys running outdoors, spending time with her miniature dachshund Wally, taking mindful walks on the beach and eating chocolate!
