Services Offered by Gena

Individual Counseling

Gena offers trauma-specific, individualized counseling for adults. Gena uses a combination of techniques including:

• Somatic Therapies (body first approach to target stored energy from trauma)

• Internal Systems (connecting with all the wounded parts of ourselves from trauma)

• Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) (recalling specific traumatic events while focusing on external stimuli such as finger movements. Helps to weaken the effects of these negative emotions)

These techniques are used to address both single incident and complex trauma. She also specializes in working with Highly Sensitive People. Highly sensitive people are those who typically process information more deeply, and have an increased awareness of energy within their environment. Research suggests that 15-20% of the population may be highly sensitive (test yourself here). If you are unsure of whether Gena’s work aligns with your specific needs, contact her for a consultation.
