About Georgina
Georgina Arhin is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in the District of Columbia with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses issues such as attachment, body image, caregiver stress, forgiveness, and feelings of guilt and shame.
She speaks plainly in sessions and focuses on what people are trying to change. Conversations are shaped around the client’s immediate worries and practical steps they can try between meetings. Georgina adapts her style to the person in front of her rather than using one fixed method.
Her background includes long-term clinical work that brings together several commonly used approaches. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep painful feelings going. She uses client-centered practices to follow the client’s priorities and to reflect what matters most to them.
Georgina also uses strategies from acceptance and commitment work to help people notice difficult emotions without getting stuck in them. For relationship or attachment concerns she looks at patterns that repeat between partners or across relationships and helps clients try different ways of relating.
Sessions are practical and conversational. She helps people set small, reachable goals and track what changes. The emphasis is on clear steps and steady progress rather than on complex jargon or lengthy homework.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions someone can take even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete tools to test and change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people try different ways of relating in current relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgina treats this as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps best in practice.
The site notes that session formats should be confirmed before booking, so check the listed online therapy options when you begin. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use video or phone in ways that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth. Ask about the specific session formats available when you schedule your first appointment so you can pick the option that fits your routine.
