Background and approach
Over the years he has also worked in outpatient programs, community services, and crisis stabilization units. Those roles shaped his skill at guiding people through recovery and managing co-occurring concerns. Glen’s style is straightforward and collaborative.
He listens first, then helps clients set clear, usable goals. Sessions focus on building skills, improving communication, and reducing painful patterns that get in the way of daily life. He blends a few approaches to meet each person’s needs.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers practical tools for intense emotions and better emotion regulation. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing can be used when trauma is a central issue.
Clients who work with him often focus on recovery from substance use, addressing family stress, improving self-esteem, and coping with grief or loss. Glen supports people in making step-by-step changes so life feels more manageable and purposeful.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and values. It gives people space to tell their story while the therapist helps guide goals and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and behavior. It teaches clear skills to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, and change unhelpful routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete tools for regulating intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when stress or impulsivity feels overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and preferences and choose methods that make sense for daily life. That process is collaborative and can change over time as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet without traveling. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, homework help, or shorter touchpoints between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping focus on practical progress.
