About Giovanna
Giovanna Agostinelli is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or changes in relationships. She writes in a direct, calm way and offers straightforward support for parenting challenges, intimacy and attachment concerns, addiction, mood shifts, and identity questions. Giovanna practices from Florida and brings eight years of clinical experience to each conversation.
She focuses on building strong therapeutic connections first. That means listening closely to what matters to each person and creating a plan that fits their life.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with attention to emotional safety and real-life skills that can be used between appointments. Giovanna uses several approaches to guide her work, including attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered methods. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment strategies and dialectical behavior tools when helpful.
These methods are applied in ways that match the concern at hand, whether it is trauma, codependency, ADHD-related struggles, or body image issues. Her background includes work across varied settings with people from different cultural backgrounds. She emphasizes multicultural sensitivity and adapts interventions to reflect each person’s values and beliefs.
Giovanna can include faith-based perspectives when clients request that integration. Therapy is presented as a collaborative process. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their availability.
Appointments can be held by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Online support
How her approaches guide online care
Giovanna uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns in close relationships and to strengthen emotional connection and trust. That approach is useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and long-standing attachment difficulties.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT can help with anxiety, coping with life changes, and building motivation for behavior change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Giovanna will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and other commitments, while keeping sessions consistent and accessible.
