About Genny

Genny Luppino is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who focuses on trauma-focused therapy alongside practical, skills-based approaches. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental presence and aims to help people process difficult experiences and build everyday coping skills. Genny emphasizes collaboration and respects each person's pace and goals in therapy.

She brings about 10 years of experience, including time as a team-based therapist and case manager in community mental health. That background means she has worked with people facing ADHD, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use challenges. She has also supported people dealing with grief, gender identity and sexual orientation issues, and a wide range of life changes.

Her style is engaged and proactive. After the initial sessions, she focuses on practical therapeutic work each meeting, teaching tools people can use outside of sessions. She draws on several approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered methods to tailor care to individual needs.

Genny adapts treatment plans to match a person’s goals and comfort level. She places importance on dignity, respect, and clear boundaries while helping clients build long-term skills. Sessions are offered on weekdays and weekends with daytime and evening times noted in her biography.

To begin, she asks people to choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is then done according to therapist availability.

How trauma-focused and skills work translate to online therapy

Genny uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process the effects of past hurt in clear, step-by-step ways, and she pairs that work with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build practical coping strategies and values-based goals. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past experiences shape current reactions, while ACT helps people notice thoughts and make choices that match what matters to them.

She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings and behaviors, helping people identify patterns and try new ways of connecting. These approaches aim to reduce overwhelm and create skills that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and what feels doable, then adjust methods as you go. That helps match the pacing and type of work to each person rather than relying on a single method.

Session formats are not listed explicitly in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapeutic work may be more consistent with daily life.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
