About Ginger

Ginger Burns is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems, depression, career concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on nine years of clinical experience and a background in education and mental health to support clients through both short-term challenges and longer-term goals. Ginger emphasizes respect, acceptance, and a warm, occasionally humorous presence while collaborating with clients to identify practical, measurable steps forward.

Her approach centers the client’s goals and strengths, using evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and client-centered techniques. Ginger’s training includes a Master of Social Work and prior experience as a secondary teacher, and she holds licensure in Florida and Georgia (FL LCSW SW19743, GA LCSW CSW006723).

She has substantial experience addressing issues like trauma, ADHD, chronic pain and illness, family and workplace problems, and mood disorders. Prospective clients in Florida can expect a respectful, goal-oriented partnership aimed at uncovering strengths and building practical skills for lasting change.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Ginger commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness techniques to help clients build better coping skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, insomnia, and low mood, while Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes clarifying values and developing psychological flexibility to navigate difficult emotions and life transitions.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore what methods align with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies over time as needed to find the most helpful path forward.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, continue care during life changes, and use formats that feel most comfortable for the individual seeking support.
