Gina Mumey, LCSW

Gina Mumey is a licensed clinical social worker who brings nine years of experience to therapy in Oregon. She works with adults across the age span and meets people where they are. Gina listens first, then helps build a clear plan toward the goals a person names. Her background includes a Gerontology degree and focused training in advanced behaviors and cognitive care. That experience means she has spent a lot of time supporting older adults and people facing dementia-related challenges, and she has led grief support groups for those navigating loss. She also works with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and compassion fatigue. Gina uses practical, strength-based methods in sessions. She helps people notice what has helped them before, keep what works, and replace unhelpful habits like smoking or overeating with healthier options. Her approach includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered care, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and hypnotherapy when appropriate. Sessions are collaborative: Gina asks about a client's goals and then co-creates a plan. She offers space to talk things through, to problem-solve, or to practice new coping skills depending on what someone needs. She emphasizes listening and focused attention so the plan reflects each person’s priorities. People who want steady support through loss, health challenges, life changes, or ongoing symptoms may find this approach useful. Gina aims to help people feel more capable and move toward a more rewarding life.

How Gina blends therapy approaches for online care

Gina often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centered Therapy in sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions by following their pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gina will discuss your goals, preferences, and what feels workable, then recommend a mix of techniques. That process is collaborative so adjustments can be made as needs or circumstances change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for more consistent check-ins during periods of stress or change. People often find online sessions helpful when they need flexible scheduling, steady support for grief or chronic health concerns, or a way to practice mindfulness and acceptance skills between appointments.
