About Giovanna
She uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and habits. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. Attachment-based work is used when relationship patterns and early connections are part of the concern.
Her background includes work across settings with a wide range of ages, genders, and cultural backgrounds. She notes experience with trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues among other focus areas. She aims to stay multiculturally sensitive in each session.
Giovanna describes therapy as a personalized process with no single approach for everyone. She tailors conversations and exercises to the person seated across from her, combining mindfulness, nurturing parenting techniques, and faith-based options when relevant and requested. She emphasizes collaboration and practical tools clients can try between meetings.
To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and she works under her Florida and Utah licenses as a LMHC and LCMHC.

How Giovanna Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Giovanna often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change everyday habits that keep problems going. CBT typically involves short, practical exercises and behavioral experiments people can try between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting.She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps even when discomfort remains. This approach pairs well with mindfulness-based techniques to build tolerance for strong emotions. Attachment-based work is used when relationship patterns or early caregiving experiences shape current struggles; it focuses on understanding and shifting how people relate to others.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats here, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter phone check-ins when time is tight, video work for in-depth conversation, or messaging to share brief updates between meetings. These practical choices help sessions match daily routines without promising a particular service.
