About Giovanna
Giovanna Agostinelli is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions. She is based in Florida and brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions. Giovanna uses a direct yet compassionate style so clients can talk through what feels most urgent to them and find clearer ways to cope.
She blends practical strategies with deeper reflection. That means offering tools like cognitive restructuring for stuck thoughts and exercises to notice values and choices.
Background and approach
Giovanna also draws on attachment-focused ideas to examine how early relationships shape current patterns. Sessions are focused on what the person wants to change and what is realistic to try right now. Her work often addresses trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, bipolar concerns, and challenges related to identity and intimacy.
She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and career transitions. Giovanna aims to be culturally aware and to respect each person’s background and beliefs. She offers multiple session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and fees vary by location and therapist availability. Giovanna holds LMHC and LCMHC credentials and has practiced in Florida. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support
How Giovanna’s Approaches Work Online
Existential Therapy pays attention to what matters most to a person - values, choice, and meaning. It helps when someone feels stuck, drained, or uncertain about major life directions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them and taking actions that match personal values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation challenges. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationship patterns shape current trust, closeness, and conflict, and they help people change repeating patterns in relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Giovanna works collaboratively to learn what the client needs, what goals feel important, and which methods fit their style. She will suggest options and adjust techniques as the work progresses so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let people see each other and work in real time. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make short check-ins or brief skills practice possible between longer sessions. These formats allow therapy to fit around work, caregiving, and other obligations while keeping the focus on steady progress.
