"I truly valued the wonderful experience of working with Gina and witnessing both her communication and empathic skills in action as she authentically listened, paused without rushing, guided without overpowering, and achieved better understanding of others’ perspectives, creating more sustainable relationships – all through a reflective and serene demeanor that created a safe environment of support and trust. "

Matthew Price

Executive Director, Society of Toxicologic Pathology


“Gina’s workshop was informative and thought-provoking as our team is always looking for ways to keep our employees engaged and happy.

‘Listen! How to be a Better Manager’ was an excellent presentation on how we can utilize our active listening to improve our roles as leaders in our organization. We look forward to having Gina return for future trainings and workshops!”

“Gina and Chantilly Mediation and Facilitation are more than just a pleasure to work with, they produce results. In April 2019 Gina facilitated three sessions for the staff at NVMS. The goal of the sessions was to build consensus among team members about marketing language that we can use to describe our services. Gina did thorough preparations for the sessions and synthesized all of the results from our discussions, including actual language that we will start to use immediately in our marketing and recommendations for additional next steps we can take. I hope to have more opportunities to work with CM&F in the future!”

Our group of professional organizers and productivity specialists were captivated when Gina spoke at our monthly meeting about empathy. We work with all types of clients and personalities and Gina shared invaluable information and education on listening, communication, and responding with compassion and kindness.

It was amazing how much Gina fit into the hour, including a short role playing exercise. Her speaking style is easy, humorous, and engaging; everyone can benefit from the skills she shares - there would be a lot less stress in our days if we used the tools Gina teaches in her workshops!
