About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social-Worker with experience treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, eating disorders, and borderline personality. I also provide marital counseling and family consultation. I provide treatment plans that address problems associated with impulse control, anger management, communication, self-awareness, self-esteem, perspective, and negative thought patterns. I have over 5 years of experience and I have treated individuals in various parts of the world, including the U.S., Europe, and Asia.

I have experience treating addiction, including drug, alcohol, and sex addiction. I have experience treating victims of sexual assault, sexual abuse, and childhood abuse. I provide spiritually integrated psychotherapy where the focus is on gaining knowledge of self and developing a relationship with a higher power. I have military experience and I am honored to have had the opportunity to treat many veterans and active duty soldiers suffering from various forms of trauma and adjustment disorders.

My approach and treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, rational emotive therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. Each treatment plan is tailored to meet the needs of each soul I interact with. I will support you and help you discover the strength, from within yourself, to fulfill your purpose and to live the life you want to live. Take that first step, and I will take the rest with you!

Giovanni Bass approaches professional therapy with the cordial tone of a brother. Seeing him as the counselor’s counselor, I recommend him for ministers, teachers, and others in the field of therapy. With his level of care, I am inclined to continue some form of counseling for the rest of my life.

“G” is like a great big healthy Oak Tree!…Lol No but for real he is steady & strong in all the right ways. He tells you like it is but you don’t feel beat up by it. He gives you truth in love. He guides without leading to much, he listens, he’s encouraging, he’s patient & he’s kind. Highly recommend
