Gina Menninger, MA, LMFT

Clinical Therapist

Welcome! I’m Gina, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), and I’m incredibly grateful to be part of the Serenity-BHS team!

I believe therapy is a partnership, and my goal is to build a stable and welcoming space to explore what’s happening in your life so you can create lasting, meaningful changes. I am here to help you develop practical tools for confidence, clarity, and calm that will translate beyond the therapy room and into your day-to-day life.

My approach is light-hearted and spiritually grounded, using evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Structural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Bowen Therapy, and the Gottman Method. I gently challenge you while walking alongside you through the process of growth and self-discovery.

My background includes working with individuals, couples, teens, and families with anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, personality dynamics and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I excel in supporting clients to navigate emotional heaviness and burnout while rebuilding trust in themselves and others and transforming anger or resentment into resilience and peace.

You can expect our sessions to be relaxed and conversational, but always focused on helping you achieve your goals with practical actions you can start implementing. I also consider the larger context of your life, including family, community, and cultural influences. I’m trained to see how your individual perspective has been shaped by the world you grew up in, the world we live in now, and the world we want to create. This is an incredibly profound time in human existence, and I believe that considering the whole landscape is key to lasting growth.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my daughter, family and friends, practicing spiritual and physical routines, giving back to my community, and finding small ways to make other people’s days a bit brighter. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
