What Clients Are Saying
I can't express enough how incredible Gina has been as our therapist! She has been a guiding light in our lives, helping not only me but also my daughter and our entire family navigate some of the most challenging times we've faced. Gina's expertise, compassion, and unwavering support have been transformative and truly life-saving. Before finding Gina, it was a real struggle to find a therapist who could diagnose my daughter's borderline personality but also help her and those close to her to know how to support her! She creates a safe and nurturing space for us to open up, heal, and grow. Thanks to her, we've learned to communicate better, understand each other more, and find the strength to overcome obstacles. Gina is not just a therapist; she's a lifeline, and we're forever grateful for her.

My first appointment with Gina way back in October of 2020, I was what felt like a shell of the person I used to be. I was lost. Gina helped me learn so many coping skills and not just life skills. I communicate with others better than nearly four years later after being treated by her from a weekly basis to twice a week, now when is needed, I wouldn't be where I am today with my mental health if it weren't for Gina. She truly saved my life by teaching me how to save myself, love myself, and sometimes by simply telling me that, yeah my anxieties, or whatever my diagnosis is was causing the issue at hand. Gina isn't afraid to tell me like it is which I love that we have that relationship because I need that. I know though that she is gentle and reads her patients and their needs and when they aren't in the headspace to hear those things she will try to in her own way find out why I would be acting a certain way and we'd fix it along the way. She truly is not just an amazing provider but hands down an amazing person all around. If she wasn't mine, I would recommend her to everyone I know but that might get a little mixed up! LOL"

I have been a patient of Gina Shields for several years. Gina is very warm and welcoming. She does everything in her power to make you feel comfortable during your sessions. She actually cares about your well-being, and it shows.
I've enjoyed how easy going and open her energy feels; she has been a great match for me. I enjoy that I can drive my own treatment and that we have an open dialogue that if the current feel of our treatment plan doesn't feel right or isn't working for me, we can always talk about it and work out something different. Gina makes me an equal in my treatment and I appreciate that very much, as with other professionals, I have not had the same experience.
I will continue to see Gina for as long as I can; she is truly amazing. I often recommend her to friends and family that are in need of someone to talk with and I would give that very same recommendation to anyone in need.

I cannot say enough good things about Gina Shields. She worked with me over the span of a couple years, and I always learned new coping strategies that I still use in my daily life. I originally went to get help with the grief of an unexpected death but quickly learned that she was the therapist I had always needed and wanted. Throughout my time with her, she helped me with an eating disorder, couple’s therapy, and trauma. Gina has an outstanding balance of validation and pushing you out of your comfort zone. She is extremely knowledgeable and personable. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend her.
