About
My name is Gina Petrella, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. For those who are local to my area, I also offer in-person sessions. I work with adults and specialize in depression, anxiety, stress, and attention deficit disorder (ADHD), using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Strength-based approaches to assist my clients with moving forward to feeling better. My approach to therapy is always based on the needs of the client, but I most often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I also incorporate Strength-based therapy with clients because I want to start with what may already be working for the client, a positive versus negative approach. These modalities allow us to work together and begin a forward path. What you can expect from your first session is for us to spend time talking about what brought you to therapy and what you have been feeling lately. I will ask questions to better understand why you may be feeling a certain way. The first session is to begin the process of building trust and for me to get a sense of how we proceed to accomplish your goals.
