Gina believes that behavior is our first language; she works closely with her clients to decode it, helping them shift from reaction to response, from judgment to curiosity. Whether navigating interpersonal challenges or exploring emotional patterns, she offers a supportive space to build insight, resilience, and connection. With a particular interest in working with men and couples, Gina helps clients understand the nuances between emotions—like guilt vs. shame or envy vs. jealousy—so they can better relate to themselves and others.
Gina Totino, LCSW, is passionate about guiding her clients toward balance, clarity, and a deeper sense of peace. With a foundation in mindfulness and emotional intelligence, she takes an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to everyone’s unique experiences and inner world. Her goal is to foster emotional clarity and personal growth.
Her clinical work draws from a wide range of modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFS-informed couples therapy), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and EFT (Tapping). She also integrates elements of relational therapy and is IFS informed.
