Gina Martinelli, LMHC — Therapist in Florida

Hi there, I'm Gina!

My style is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, and I specialize in supporting adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions.

My focus

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, grief, and relationship challenges. I have particular experience supporting LGBTQ+ clients, military service members, first responders, and those in nontraditional or kink-affirming relationships.

My approach

I use a strengths-based, collaborative approach tailored to each client's needs. Drawing from CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, I help clients develop insight, build effective coping skills, and create lasting change in their daily lives.

My communication style

Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and supportive. I create a safe and nonjudgmental environment while also encouraging growth through honest feedback, reflection, and practical strategies that clients can apply between sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this field through my passion for helping others find healing and strength during life's hardest moments. I have been inspired by the resilience of my clients and committed to walking alongside them in their growth and recovery.

My goals for you

I work collaboratively with clients to define meaningful, realistic goals that align with their values and needs. Together, we break goals down into manageable steps and review progress regularly to celebrate successes and adjust as needed.

Our first session

In the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive space where we get to know each other. We'll explore what brought you to therapy, discuss your goals, and begin identifying strategies to help you move toward the changes you want.
