About Genevieve
Genevieve (Genny) Gravina is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She brings six years of clinical experience and a calm, approachable manner to sessions. Genny focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, depression, and relationship or family concerns.
She blends client-centered work with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness. That means conversations start with what matters to the person in front of her and move toward small, concrete changes.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill practice, simple behavior experiments, and ways to notice unhelpful thinking. Genny also supports people with sleep and eating concerns, self-esteem and body-image struggles, and the emotional strain of parenting or caregiving. She helps clients untangle communication problems, codependency, shame, and isolation.
Where mood or personality patterns are at play, she focuses on steady, manageable steps rather than quick fixes. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She will listen, ask clear questions, and work with each person to set practical goals.
People who prefer a mix of talk, skills, and gentle self-reflection tend to do well in her practice. Sessions are offered in English by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Genny works with a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling is arranged after a short matching questionnaire.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The therapist creates space for people to talk about what matters most and helps shape goals from their priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, actions, and feelings and uses simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood difficulties, and sleep or behavioral patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress without making problems worse.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life and together decide which methods to use. This collaborative process means techniques are adapted over time to fit what actually helps.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and different communication needs. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and screen-shared worksheets, phone sessions can fit a break at work or reduce bandwidth needs, and live chat or text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or written reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to use tools in real life as they come up.
