About Genevieve
Genevieve Sofranec is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) practicing with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, and issues around relationships and parenting. Sessions focus on practical skills and clear next steps rather than jargon.
She shifted into therapy after a career in business management and brings that practical perspective to clinical work. That change shaped how she supports people who are rebuilding after hard experiences. She often helps clients sort through identity, self-worth, and life changes using straightforward approaches.
Her clinical toolkit includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. In sessions she breaks skills down into small steps, practices new responses, and reviews what worked between meetings.
Genevieve also works with concerns linked to chronic illness, caregiving stress, addiction, and body image. She addresses practical problems like communication, commitment issues, and coping with career or parenting pressures. Conversations aim to make daily life more manageable.
She uses straightforward language and focuses on measurable goals. People leave sessions with specific strategies to try in real situations. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try first, check progress, and adjust plans based on what feels helpful. This is a step-by-step process with shared decision making.
Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let them join from quieter surroundings without travel. Talk with the therapist about scheduling, session length, or whether brief phone or video options suit your day-to-day needs.
