Gina Mumey, LCSW

Gina Mumey is an LCSW who brings nine years of experience to her work with adults. She offers steady listening and practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and life changes. Gina asks clients to name their goals and then partners with them to make a clear plan to reach those goals.

Gina has a background in gerontology and has focused on advanced behaviors and cognitive care for older adults and people with dementia and their loved ones. She has also led grief support groups and helped people process losses that come from death or other major life changes. This experience informs a calm, respectful approach in individual sessions.

Her style is strengths-based and collaborative. Gina notices what is working for a person and builds on those abilities while introducing healthier coping options for things like smoking, drinking, or overeating. She can be a listening presence or a problem-solving partner depending on what the client needs.

Gina uses several therapeutic approaches including acceptance and commitment techniques, client-centered methods, hypnotherapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. She encourages straightforward goals and measurable steps so progress is clear.

Sessions focus on practical supports for daily life - sleep, parenting stress, career strain, chronic illness, caregiving, and trauma-related concerns. Gina works from Oregon and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most to you and taking small actions toward those values while accepting uncomfortable feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and basic attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep, stress, and emotion regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's lead so sessions reflect the client's priorities and pace.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Gina will work with each person to identify which methods fit their needs and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The goal is to use approaches that align with a person's values and daily life, not to push a single method.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and support steady work on goals from wherever a person is that day. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions when the format fits the client's needs and schedule.
