About Gina
Gina Marqua is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people move through trauma, addictions, and major life changes. She works with individuals who are coping with anxiety, depression, mood swings, and complex relationship or family stress. Gina draws on compassionate, practical methods in sessions.
She helps clients name painful emotions like guilt or shame. Together they build skills for managing cravings, panic, anger, and intense moods. Her practice is informed by attachment-focused and client-centered approaches.
Background and approach
That means attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It also means sessions are guided by each person's goals and pace. Gina uses cognitive-behavioral tools to shift thinking and behavior that keep problems stuck.
She also incorporates dialectical strategies to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance. For trauma that remains stuck, she offers EMDR-informed methods to help process distressing memories. With ten years of experience, Gina has worked with people facing addiction, chronic pain, grief, and complicated family histories.
She also supports those who face first responder stress, adoption and foster care concerns, and neurodiversity-related challenges. She holds LCSW credentials in Tennessee and Indiana and offers care in Tennessee. Sessions are conducted in English to match the needs of the people she sees.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work in online care
Online sessions can use attachment-based and client-centered work to help people notice how past relationships affect current reactions. Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns of closeness and trust and helps people develop healthier ways of relating. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and lets the therapist follow the client's pace and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy is also used online to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that increase stress or mood problems. CBT techniques are practical and can be practiced between appointments, which many people find useful when juggling busy days. Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and symptoms and then try strategies together to see what fits. Plans are adjusted over time so work stays relevant to what the person needs. Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and different communication needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills work and deep conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when video would be difficult, and live chat or text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or crisis coping between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while fitting therapy into daily life.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
