About Gina
Dr. Gina DeArth-Pendley offers straightforward, practical help for people feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, or major life changes. She meets each person with calm attention and a focus on what matters most to them.
Dr. DeArth-Pendley is a Kentucky psychologist with more than 22 years of experience, and she speaks English. In sessions she listens closely and works collaboratively to set clear goals.
She uses approaches that look at how relationships shape behavior and how thoughts and actions interact.
Background and approach
That means clients leave with hands-on strategies and clearer ways to handle day-to-day challenges. Her background includes a doctorate degree from the University of Notre Dame and long experience in outpatient and inpatient settings. She has worked across several states and in settings that included schools and juvenile justice programs.
This variety informs a flexible approach to common concerns like ADHD, mood disorders, and coping with transitions. Dr. DeArth-Pendley draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential ideas, and the Gottman Method when relevant.
She focuses on improving communication, reducing impulsivity, and building healthier self-esteem. Sessions often include skill practice, guided reflection, and steps people can try between meetings. The goal is steady progress that fits each person’s life and values.
If someone wants to explore relationship patterns, manage anxiety, or find more purpose, she works as a partner in that process.

Online support
Attachment and Cognitive Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships influence thoughts and feelings. Online sessions can help people notice interaction patterns and practice new ways of relating to partners or family members.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding from the client’s point of view. In this approach the therapist supports a person’s own problem-solving, which can help with self-esteem and life direction.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match approaches to goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That means trying techniques, tracking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or hands-free needs matter. Live chat and messaging can serve as brief check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to work on relationship patterns, anxiety, or life transitions without long commutes or rigid schedules.
