Getting to know Gail Giunta
Disclaimer: Providers at Canino Psychotherapy focus on therapy services and do not prescribe medication, as they are not psychiatrists.
My approach to therapy includes creating a safe space for clients to feel ok with vulnerability in getting to know themselves better while developing a collaborative atmosphere where client and therapist work together in helping the client develop goals for therapy. These goals can change and evolve over time based on new skills learned and insights revealed. I utilize an integrative approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered, Humanistic, and Creative Arts modalities.
What should a new client know about working with you?
If you are feeling confused, anxious, or uncertain about life decisions and next steps; if you are feeling lonely, anxious, and isolated due to pandemic stress, or job, relationship stress or difficulties, we can explore how to create a sense of relief and motivation in your achieving lifestyle balance and purpose. It is my passion to help others find the steps appropriate for everyone in their path to moving forward with a more positive and healthier
outlook.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I meet my clients where they are on their journey, we walk the path together. I am LGBTQ+friendly and an advocate. I work primarily with individual adults 21+. I have a passion for women’s issues and empowering women. I specialize in working with clients in life transitions; whether a new college graduate navigating work/life balance outside of school;
a career challenger; an empty nester; divorce; relationship challenges including recovery from codependency and narcissistic abuse; folks living with a chronic illness; and loss/grief.

Gail has helped me through some trials and turbulences. She is professional, honest, caring, and share my same value system. She is easy to talk to, has always been patient, and someone I have come to trust. Her methods are both methodological and inspirational through her appreciation of arts and knowledge. I would highly recommend Gail for anyone who needs a sound and competent life advisor.

I think there is more than one way to look at every situation. During my last visit we had some disagreement. With that said, it helped to show an unexpected perspective. It helped me to see things differently. It was productive, and made me want to make some changes.

Gail was a great psychotherapist. I've worked with her for 3 years. In that time, Gail has demonstrated her expertise by teaching me sustainable cognitive tools and healing techniques that helped me overcome many obstacles, especially in my dark periods. She is creative and compassionate. I highly suggest working with her.

I had a great time working with Gail. We had in-depth conversations every week working on identifying strengths, areas to spend attention on, and overall creating a healthy balance between what we can change and things to make peace with.

Gail is a wonderful therapist!! I first began working with her right after my mom passed away and she helped me work my way through the grief and all the emotions that came up during that very difficult time. Each session is geared toward my specific needs, so a space is created that safe and very personal. Gail has made a huge positive impact on my life and I give her the highest recommendation!!
