Prior to working as a coach, Gina served for more than 25 years in healthcare. Most of this work was in emergency and trauma settings. During this time, she walked with countless individuals and families going through transition, grief, trauma, and illness.
Gina has worked beside remarkably courageous and compassionate humans while serving in healthcare. Her heart will be forever pulled to the needs and care of the caregivers and change agents working for patients.
As a coach, she has enjoyed working with healthcare leaders of all kinds: physicians, organizational executives, physical therapists, clinic owners, dentists, and many other public servants.
When working with healthcare leaders, Gina creates a safe space to talk about issues such as conflict resolution, secondary trauma, resilience, depletion, change management, and burnout. She understands the landscape of healthcare and knows that the problems faced each day by people in medicine are far more complex than most people understand. There is no easy button.
Gina believes that the hope for the future of our healthcare system lies in the humans doing the work. She reserves a certain number of hours each month for serving healthcare professionals and organizations.
Please call her. She wants to help.
Even the saviors need saving.
Even the healers need healing.
Even the holders need holding.
Even the beings need being.
