About Georgianne

Georgianne Nacionales is a licensed clinical social worker in Hawaii with eight years of post-masters professional experience. She holds a Master of Social Work and a Master of Special Education and has worked across the social services field for nearly 20 years.

Georgianne focuses on relationship and family concerns and offers support for parenting challenges, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and other life changes. She begins therapy as a conversation where clients set the priorities.

Background and approach

Sessions are nonjudgmental and paced to match each persons comfort level. Georgianne emphasizes practical steps that build confidence and motivation while drawing on clients existing strengths. Her work addresses everyday family strains such as blended family issues, adoption and foster care matters, fatherhood concerns, and caregiver stress.

She also helps people facing grief, trauma, addiction challenges, sleep or eating struggles, and compassion fatigue. Clinical approaches she uses include cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment practices, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness, and a client-centered stance. Georgianne aims to make therapy feel collaborative.

She helps people identify clear goals and small changes that fit daily life. The focus is on usable tools for communication, managing emotions, and coping with change. Therapy with Georgianne can be scheduled online or by phone according to session formats.

She works in English and is licensed in Hawaii as an LCSW.

Online support

Approaches for online work and practical skills

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions toward them. It helps people make choices that match what matters most, even when emotions are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviors to identify practical changes that reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. It uses clear, doable exercises to change habits and reactions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the persons experience, offering reflective listening, empathy, and support to help you find your own solutions.

Finding the right method is part of the process. Georgianne will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and daily life. She adjusts strategies based on what is working and what feels manageable, so therapy stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions can be easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let you work face to face; phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief, ongoing support between sessions. These options make it possible to practice skills, track progress, and stay connected with a licensed professional without large scheduling hurdles.
