About Gina
Gina Landsee is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes, including blended family issues and relationship challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Gina uses a straightforward, person-centered style. She begins by listening to current worries and practical obstacles. Then she helps people set clear goals and try small changes that can reduce daily stress and improve relationships.
Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. Gina draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She applies motivational interviewing to support change around substance use and other risky habits.
She also uses skills from dialectical behavioral approaches to manage strong emotions and psychodynamic ideas to look at long-running patterns that affect relationships. Trauma-informed perspectives guide work with painful memories and safety planning.
Over 17 years Gina has worked across a range of clinical settings. She often helps people dealing with abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, communication problems, and the stress of divorce or separation. Practical problem-solving and steady skill-building are common features of her sessions.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Gina integrates several evidence-based techniques into her work and explains them in plain terms. Cognitive-behavioral methods focus on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that increase stress or conflict. This can help with depression, anxiety, and communication problems.Motivational interviewing is used to support change around substance use and other habits. It centers on exploring readiness for change and building personal motivation rather than pushing for immediate steps.
She also draws on trauma-informed ways of working to manage the impact of past harm and on dialectical behavioral skills to stabilize intense emotions. These approaches are practical and aim to produce skills people can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify which techniques fit the client’s goals and preferences and will adjust plans as progress is reviewed. Clients and the therapist work together to set priorities and try methods that make sense for daily life.
