About Giovanna
Giovanna Agostinelli is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and ADHD concerns. She sees adults who need support with mood struggles, parenting questions, or the fallout of trauma and abuse. Her tone is practical and steady, aimed at people who want clear tools and steady support.
Giovanna uses straightforward therapy methods like cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people act in line with their values.
Background and approach
Attachment-based thinking helps her notice how relationships shape current patterns. Her work includes helping people manage addictive behaviors, navigate identity and LGBT issues, and cope with major life changes. She also supports those facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, or complex family arrangements.
Sessions focus on concrete steps you can try between meetings. Giovanna has eight years of clinical experience and holds LMHC and LCMHC credentials in Florida and Utah. She aims to be culturally aware and responsive to different backgrounds and faith perspectives when relevant to a person's care.
Sessions can be scheduled in formats like video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling based on availability. Her approach respects that each person is different and builds a plan around individual goals.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Giovanna commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, and struggles with focus or daily routines.She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when uncomfortable feelings remain. That approach can be helpful for stress, low motivation, and long-term change.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Giovanna will listen to your goals and try different tools to see what works best. Together you set priorities and adjust strategies based on what helps you make progress.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let you send updates or work through moments between calls. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and to keep continuity when schedules shift.
