About Todd
Todd Glickman offers a calm, practical presence for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, or low self-worth. He aims to create a straightforward space where clients can talk through problems and build useful skills. Todd is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - based in North Carolina with 21 years of experience.
He uses a relaxed, collaborative stance in sessions. Conversations are focused and goal-oriented, with clear steps to practice between meetings.
Background and approach
That coaching influence comes from a background in athletics and mentoring, where repeated practice builds stronger habits. Todd has worked in intensive in-home settings, homeless shelters, recovery programs, and schools. Those varied roles shaped a practical, real-world approach to emotional and behavioral struggles.
He brings empathy along with concrete strategies for change. Sessions often emphasize skill practice over abstract talk. Clients can expect guidance on handling triggers, managing impulses, and improving communication.
The work includes short exercises, role-play, and simple plans to try between sessions. People wanting steady, down-to-earth support for issues such as depression, addiction, relationship communication, or life transitions may find his approach helpful. He welcomes conversations that balance honest feedback with encouragement.
Todd focuses on helping people build resilience and clearer direction in daily life.
Approaches that emphasize practice and skill-building
Many of Todd's methods focus on active, evidence-based techniques that teach coping skills and change behavior. One common approach is skill-focused work that breaks problems into specific drills - such as managing anxiety with breathing, grounding, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. This helps people reduce panic and build confidence in everyday moments.An additional approach emphasizes relapse prevention and structured routines for substance use and addictive behaviors. That work centers on identifying triggers, planning alternatives, and rehearsing responses so slips are less likely to become cycles. It is practical and action oriented, useful for people aiming to stay sober or regain control over impulses.
Finding the right method is part of therapy. Todd treats the choice of approach as collaborative and adjusts plans to fit each person's goals, needs, and preferences. He will discuss options, try specific techniques, and change course when something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversations and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick updates, brief coaching between meetings, or people who prefer writing to speaking.
