Gina Mumey, LCSW

Gina Mumey is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of practice. She helps adults across the age span, including many older adults, who are managing life changes, loss, or long-term mental health concerns. Gina aims to create a straightforward plan based on each person’s goals and preferences.

She listens first and then collaborates on what comes next. Sometimes a person needs a sounding board to sort feelings. Other times they want concrete steps toward recovery. Gina blends those roles and adjusts to what a person needs in the moment.

Gina has a gerontology degree and additional training in advanced behaviors and cognitive care. That background informed much of her work with older adults and with people affected by dementia. She has also led grief support groups and spent time supporting people facing loss from many causes.

Her approach is strengths-based. She points out what is working and helps replace unhelpful coping habits with healthier options. Gina uses tools drawn from acceptance and commitment ideas, client-centered listening, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and hypnotherapy to meet practical goals.

Typical concerns she addresses include anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, sleep problems, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and relationship or intimacy issues. She invites people to name a goal and then co-designs a plan to reach it.

Gina welcomes direct conversation about what someone needs and how therapy could fit into their life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small steps toward a life that matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with change. Client-centered therapy centers on attentive listening and reflecting what a person says so they can find clarity and decide next steps. That style supports people who need a safe space to sort feelings and set goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the plan. Gina works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the techniques as needed so the work feels useful and doable.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also help people keep therapy going during health or mobility challenges. A therapist will help decide which methods and session rhythm will best fit day-to-day life.
