About Georgette

Georgette McNally is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona with 13 years of experience. She works with people who want to make concrete changes in their lives, including those facing substance use, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other difficult life events.

Georgette draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a solution-focused, client-centered stance. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. She helps people identify small, usable steps they can take between meetings.

Her work includes a range of concerns such as stress, self-esteem, grief, intimacy-related issues, and problems tied to alcohol or drug use. Codependency is also an area she addresses alongside addictions and coping with life changes. Georgette talks through patterns and helps people spot where they keep putting others first to their own cost.

In session she uses tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to build coping skills. That can mean practicing new ways to manage strong emotions, building clearer boundaries, or setting short-term goals to test different behaviors.

Georgette aims to work collaboratively on realistic plans. She invites clients to name specific goals and then maps out steps to reach them. Her approach emphasizes skill-building and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How sessions work

How her main approaches translate to online sessions

Georgette often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce distress. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems where thinking and doing patterns keep someone stuck.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help people manage intense emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness. DBT tools include emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication strategies that can be practiced between sessions.

Mindfulness techniques are another part of her work, teaching simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These practices can support efforts to change addictive patterns and to notice codependent responses as they arise.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Georgette works together with each person to choose methods that match goals and daily life. She reviews what is helping and adjusts the plan as needed so the work feels useful and doable.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in the places they live and work. Licensed professionals can guide how to use each session type to best support progress.
