About Genna

Genna Cincogrono is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of experience. She practices in Florida and lists anger among the concerns she addresses, alongside substance issues, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, and parenting challenges.

She tends to be direct and practical in sessions. She helps people name patterns that feed anger and learns specific skills to respond differently. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small, doable changes between sessions.

Genna draws from several approaches to guide work on strong emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and reshape responses. EMDR is included for trauma-related material where appropriate. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about change.

Her background includes work in substance abuse treatment and a private practice. This gives experience with addiction, relapse concerns, and cross-addiction issues that often sit alongside anger and relationship strain. She also reports experience with eating concerns, sleep, grief, and attachment-related issues.

Genna works in a straightforward, nonjudgmental way. Sessions cover skills practice, problem solving, and reviewing what worked or didn’t between meetings. People who want clear steps to manage frustration, repair strained relationships, or reduce reactive patterns often find this approach useful.

How sessions work

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Genna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR as part of her approach. CBT helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep anger stuck, and it focuses on practicing different reactions. EMDR is used when past trauma contributes to strong emotional responses and it aims to reduce the intensity of trauma-linked memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods fit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaboration can include trying one method for several sessions and adjusting based on how the person responds.

The profile does not specify session delivery formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many clients value doing sessions remotely because it can fit more easily around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and make brief check-ins simpler. Remote work also makes it possible to continue therapy when schedules change or travel keeps someone from attending in person.
