Getting to know Gigi Kent
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (or LPC) with a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, California.
My approach
I offer a warm, calming, nonjudgmental approach, sensitive to your individual needs and focused on helping you gain the clarity, healing, and equanimity you may be seeking.
My focus
My orientation is psychodynamic in nature, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I offer a culturally sensitive lens, integrating a variety of evidence-based practices, including mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I am also trained in EMDR and Developmental Couples Therapy.
My communication style
Together, we’ll collaborate on identifying thought processes and patterns that may be holding you back while developing strategies to improve resilience, self-esteem, and a greater sense of well-being. You'll gain an understanding of how our past impacts our present and how limiting beliefs can hold us back from achieving the very things we seek.
My journey to mental healthcare
Prior to becoming an LPC, I was a labor and delivery nurse & childbirth educator, teaching mindfulness-based childbirth classes to women and couples on their journey to becoming parents and partners. It was through this experience and honor that I knew I wanted to work with individuals and couples on a deeper, more transformative level, to help support and empower people through life’s inevitable transitions and challenges.
My goals for you
I strive to create an empowering, nonjudgmental space for you to feel comfortable and respected in order to explore your experiences, strengthen your self-awareness, heal from the past, and move forward with confidence and compassion.
