About Genevieve

New York LMHC Genevieve (Genny) Gravina has six years of clinical experience and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, mood disorders, and parenting concerns. She uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches, and she incorporates mindfulness and narrative methods where helpful. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices in New York.

Genny frames therapy around practical skills and clear conversation. She listens for patterns that cause distress and helps people try small changes. Expect direct discussion of thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns, plus exercises you can practice between sessions.

She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and test unhelpful thinking. She integrates dialectical behavior tools for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. Mindfulness practices and narrative work are added when they support self-awareness and clearer personal stories.

Genny has worked with concerns that include eating and sleep problems, bipolar and other mood disorders, ADHD, compassion fatigue, attachment and codependency issues, body image, social anxiety, and family conflict. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, parenting strain, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

In early sessions she focuses on what feels most urgent and on immediate coping strategies. Over time she helps people reframe recurring patterns and build new ways of relating to themselves and others. The approach aims to be practical, conversational, and focused on everyday changes that fit family life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening and reflecting a client's concerns back in simple language. Online sessions that use this approach center the person's experience and priorities, helping them shape goals and next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to test new thinking. It's often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating-related issues. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense moods and relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life, and may combine techniques over time based on what helps most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Online work also makes it possible to practice skills in day-to-day settings and bring real-life examples into sessions for discussion.
