Gigi Holder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Mississippi with seven years of professional experience supporting people through a range of emotional and life challenges. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a credential that reflects advanced training in social work and clinical practice. She has worked extensively with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, motivation and self-esteem difficulties, and issues related to confidence.

For nearly five years she focused on healthy behavior therapy and saw firsthand how intentional lifestyle changes can improve overall health and wellbeing. That experience informs her practical, strengths-based approach. She seeks to uncover each person’s story while treating clients as the experts of their own lives, helping them identify resources and strategies already within reach.

Gigi blends encouragement with actionable steps to address challenges such as guilt and shame, isolation, body image concerns, caregiver stress, workplace problems, and issues around self-love and life purpose. She emphasizes collaborative goal-setting and habit change to support sustainable progress. Taking the first step toward a more satisfying and balanced life requires courage, and Gigi offers steady support and practical guidance to help clients move forward. She is accepting new clients and provides services in English in Mississippi.

Approaches for Online Therapy and How They Help

Gigi Holder incorporates Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in current relationships; this approach can be helpful for clients working through trust, intimacy, and communication challenges. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, a practical method often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy is another core approach, focusing on the client’s goals and strengths while offering empathic support and nonjudgmental guidance to build self-esteem and clarity.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work, and Gigi collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for the client’s evolving concerns.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals. Video calls and phone sessions allow real-time conversations that closely mirror in-person work, while live chat and text-based messaging provide more immediate, brief check-ins and a way to fit support into a busy schedule. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access care from home in Mississippi, and choose the format that best supports progress.
