About Georgina

Georgina Arhin is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of clinical work in the District of Columbia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and depression. Georgina aims to meet people where they are and make the first steps toward change feel manageable.

She approaches sessions with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations and care plans are shaped to each person's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all method. That means practical talk about what feels stuck and small steps you can try between sessions.

Georgina draws on a range of approaches to match what a person needs. She uses tools from acceptance and commitment methods, behavioral approaches, and therapies that focus on attachment and emotions. These give ways to notice difficult thoughts, practice new behaviors, and repair important relationships.

Her work includes attention to caregiver stress and compassion fatigue, body image and self-worth, and issues such as shame, guilt, and isolation. She also supports people navigating infidelity, impulsivity, panic, and questions about life purpose. Georgina can help people who are managing the emotional impact of HIV and AIDS.

If you are ready to begin, she asks for a brief matching questionnaire to understand your goals. From there, you can schedule sessions based on what fits your life and aims.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Georgina uses evidence-informed methods to help people shift unwanted patterns and build meaningful routines. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them and then choosing actions that match personal values. This approach often helps with anxiety, stress, and motivation when people feel stuck.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape how people connect and respond to others. It can be useful for repair after conflict, for intimacy concerns, and for people who feel isolated or repeatedly triggered in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgina discusses options and adapts methods based on a person's goals, values, and what works in real life. She collaborates with clients to try approaches and adjust as needed rather than prescribing a single path.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online care can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more focused check-ins when life is busy. It can also help people maintain momentum between in-person commitments. Talk with Georgina through the matching questionnaire to decide how therapy can fit into your everyday routine.
