About Giovanni
Giovanni Bass is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, sleep difficulties, and substance concerns. He also supports those facing grief, anger, low self-esteem, and major life transitions.
Giovanni uses straightforward, practical plans rather than jargon. He focuses on improving daily routines, communication, and coping skills. Sessions often look at thought patterns, behaviors, and relationship dynamics to find small, manageable changes that make a difference.
His background includes work with people affected by trauma and adjustment challenges. He draws on several common therapy approaches to shape each plan around a person’s needs. This can include attention to attachment, boundaries, impulse control, and rebuilding trust after betrayals.
Giovanni also offers spiritually integrated care for clients who want to include their faith or spiritual life in therapy. He aims to help people connect with sources of meaning while they work on practical steps toward better sleep, calmer moods, and clearer priorities.
He practices in North Carolina and provides care in English. People who want to begin can expect a collaborative process where therapist and client set goals together and track progress in concrete ways.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, choose what matters most, and take small committed steps toward those values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, which can help with sleep issues, depression, and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work; it supports self-awareness and healing at a personal pace.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs and then try methods that fit those priorities. Together they track whether an approach is helping and adjust the plan if needed.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It can also help maintain continuity of care during relocation or while managing work and family obligations.
