Compassionate therapy to help you feel grounded, supported, and confident as you navigate life's challenges.

Gena Dube, MSW, LICSW

Hi, I'm Gena Dube, licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Healing Hearts, Healing Minds, MA.

With a deep belief in the power of connection, I provide therapy that’s compassionate, practical, and tailored to your needs. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, healing from past wounds, or struggling in your relationship, this is a space to feel seen, supported, and safe.

My approach blends evidence-based care with heart, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and real-world strategies that help you move forward with clarity. I provide evidence-based counseling tailored to each client’s unique needs, values, and beliefs. For clients who desire it, I can also integrate faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process.

Who I Work Best With

Whether you’re feeling stuck, carrying old emotional wounds, or navigating a tough season, this is a space to feel supported, seen, and heard. I work best with:

Individuals feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of who they are.
Teens (14+) and adults navigating self-doubt, anxiety, or past emotional wounds.
Couples working through communication struggles or patterns that feel hard to break.
Anyone who feels like they're surviving, not thriving, and needs more support.
Anyone ready to show up with openness and explore what's next in their healing.

How We Can Work Together

Whether you’re seeking therapy for yourself or as a couple, I offer both in-person sessions in West Springfield and virtual sessions across Massachusetts. Together, we’ll take an honest look at what’s weighing you down and work toward meaningful, lasting change. My approach blends evidence-based care with heart, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and real-world strategies that help you move forward with clarity.

Gena is absolutely wonderful!

In couples therapy, Gena helped us recognize and appreciate the love we share while also encouraging us to move beyond our comfort zones. Gena wasn't afraid to call us out when she suspected we were hiding something from within ourselves, and she was usually right! Her ability to gently challenge us while making us feel supported made a tremendous difference in our lives. Without Gena's expertise and guidance, neither of us would be where we are today, which is in a significantly healthier and happier place!- CLIENT

Gena has consistently provided a safe, nurturing space for me to share my feelings.

She has taught me how to reframe my negative thoughts and create new pathways towards a more positive inner experience. Without these skills I’ve acquired through Gena, i know I would not be as mentally well as I am today. I have never felt judged or apprehensive in what I should say. Gena has maintained a positive and welcoming space for me. She holds me accountable, and challenges me to do the work. She is tuned in to what I have to say and is ready to give constructive advice when needed. I am a better person because of the help Gena has provided. I stand by that whole heartedly.- CLIENT

Finding a therapist isn't just about credentials, it's about connection.

Finding a therapist isn’t just about credentials, it’s about connection. That’s why I offer a free 30-minute consultation. It’s time for both of us to ask questions, explore your goals, and see how it feels to connect. No pressure, just a conversation.
