About Gina Sokolich

Gina Sokolich, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), is a Missouri-based therapist who combines clinical skills with real-world experience to support people through a wide range of concerns. Recently retired from the EMS field, she brings firsthand knowledge of trauma from varied situations and a practical understanding of how stressful work and life events can affect emotional well-being.

Gina frequently works with individuals navigating narcissistic relationships and with first responders managing PTSD or other work-related struggles. She also helps people who are seeking clarity about life direction or who want a fresh perspective on ongoing challenges. Her approach is client-led - she meets people where they are, offers space to reflect and process, and will respectfully challenge perspectives when that supports growth.

Gina often uses EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and Brainspotting to address difficult experiences, and she discusses actionable strategies clients can use between sessions. She also offers guidance in mindful meditation and stress-relief techniques. Gina aims to provide practical, compassionate support tailored to each person’s needs, and she welcomes inquiries about what might be helpful in any given situation.
