About Gina
Gina Landsee is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Minnesota. She offers direct, nonjudgmental care for people feeling overwhelmed by depression, grief, addictions, trauma, and major life changes. Gina writes and speaks plainly, so conversations stay clear and focused on what matters now.
Gina has 17 years of experience in clinical practice. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including substance use, complex trauma, anxiety, and major mood difficulties. Her background includes helping people cope with relationship strain, blended family stress, cancer-related concerns, and separation or divorce.
Her style is person-centered and practical. Gina aims to meet people where they are with empathy and respect. She uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs rather than a single method.
Gina draws from cognitive-behavioral skills to teach ways of noticing and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses dialectical behavioral ideas to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when feelings get intense.
Motivational interviewing helps when change feels hard or uncertain, especially around substance use or patterns of codependency. She views hard experiences through a trauma lens and makes space for processing grief, abandonment, dissociation, and attachment wounds.
Gina encourages active collaboration about goals and pacing. She helps people plan small, doable steps and evaluates progress together as therapy continues.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Gina commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify patterns of thinking and behavior and practice small changes that reduce distress. These skills work well for anxiety, depression, panic-related symptoms, and habits tied to substance use.She also draws on dialectical behavioral ideas to support emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These strategies are helpful when feelings become intense or relationships feel unstable.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gina works with each person to set goals, try methods, and adjust as needed so therapy fits personal needs and preferences.
