About Genny

Genny Luppino is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who focuses on practical, skills-based therapy. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental approach and helps people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and substance use concerns.

Her style is direct and proactive. After the first two sessions she emphasizes hands-on work each meeting, teaching skills and strategies people can use between sessions. She invites clients to set the pace and goals so therapy fits their needs.

Genny has about 10 years of experience and has worked in community mental health roles as a team-based therapist and case manager. That background exposed her to a range of concerns across the lifespan, including caregiving stress, grief, and mood disorders. She also supports people processing trauma and those navigating identity and orientation questions.

Her clinical approach blends evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused thinking, and person-centered care. She describes sessions as collaborative and tailored to each person’s goals rather than one-size-fits-all.

Genny also lists adoption and foster care among her areas of focus and has experience addressing abandonment and attachment-related topics. She invites people who are ready to work toward practical change to begin with a short intake and a plan focused on real-life skills.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns with structured exercises and homework to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and early bonds, helping people understand how those patterns affect current connection and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Genny works collaboratively to identify which methods match a person's goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time and checks in to make sure the work feels useful and relevant.

The biography notes an online private practice but does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, they save commute time, allow for shorter check-ins during a break, and can let people work from a quieter room instead of traveling. Licensed professionals can use online work to teach skills, review behavioral plans, and practice new ways of relating in everyday situations.
