About Gina
Gina Batliner is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Oregon with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and family-related struggles.

Gina’s style is warm and collaborative. She listens first, helps identify immediate priorities, and then teaches concrete tools to manage emotions and behavior.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill practice, problem-solving, and reflections on relationship patterns so progress carries outside the therapy room. Her approach draws on several well-known methods. Cognitive behavioral techniques help people recognize and change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages clearer values and committed action. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand how early relationships shape current connections and reactions. Gina treats therapy as a partnership.
She works at the client’s pace and adjusts strategies to match each person’s strengths and daily demands. Many clients find this approach helpful when juggling work, family roles, or the ups and downs of mood conditions. Gina has worked in a variety of clinical settings over the years, building practical experience with many types of life stress and mood concerns.
She focuses on helping people build resilience, respond differently to triggers, and create routines that support lasting change.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical alternatives to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based ideas are used to look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and to practice new ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try strategies together and adjust as needed. This collaborative process helps clients find methods that fit their life and priorities.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for face-to-face conversations and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let clients share thoughts between sessions or check in when email feels too formal. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain regular momentum.
