About Gina
Dr. Gina Gonzalezreyna greets visitors with a calm, practical approach.
Background and approach
She is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California - LMFT - with 25 years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, grief, and changes at work or home.
Her sessions aim to increase self-awareness and inner strength. She treats trauma, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, sleep problems, anger, and low self-esteem.
She also works with people facing postpartum depression, attachment and abandonment issues, and the challenges that can come with autism and young adulthood. In session she uses clear, interactive techniques and sometimes gentle humor.
Her work draws on approaches such as attachment-based therapy, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques. That mix helps people learn new ways to handle upsetting thoughts and patterns.
She encourages a regular weekly appointment to build momentum and steady progress. Sessions may be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging depending on what feels most useful.
Messages typically receive a reply within 24 hours. To begin, a short intake and scheduling step is required.
Dr. Gonzalezreyna frames therapy as a shared process where the client’s experience guides the work and practical steps are taken toward clearer thinking and better coping.
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current relationships and patterns, and it can help people who feel stuck in repeating emotional cycles. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person's experience, helping clients name priorities and make choices that feel right to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on their goals, needs, and what feels comfortable. That shared planning is revisited as therapy progresses so methods can be adjusted over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video helps recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, live chat lets people check in quickly, and text messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep weekly appointments and to use therapy even when schedules are tight.
