About Gina Marie Letizia, LPCC
Gina is an independently licensed mental health counselor in the state of New Mexico, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). She gained her Master of Arts in Counseling and Art Therapy at Southwestern College in Santa Fe in 2012.
Technique
Gina’s approach is humanistic and integrative in nature. Her technique is informed by her own lived experiences. Art has been a transformational medium in her life. At an early age she personally experienced the healing powers of art as therapy. In addition to art therapy, she will also apply a variety of evidence-based techniques to help you on your path. For example, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques can bring awareness to where one might get stuck in negative beliefs/thoughts/patterns that no longer serve us.
She takes a holistic approach when working with clients, knowing that there are multiple factors that can impact a person’s mental wellbeing including but not limited to: relationships, career, family, expectations, social/environmental, nutrition, movement, and sleep to name a few. For this reason Gina will also consider her other trainings such as yoga and nutrition to help you attain your goals.
Process
You will begin by completing an intake appointment where Gina will listen to your symptoms and needs. She will work with you to establish goals for your treatment and a plan that fits your needs and lifestyle.
