Meet Glenda

I have 20 years of experience working with clients creating a safe space where they can explore the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that are getting in the way of having the relationships and lives they want. Making changes can be scary. Through compassion, empathy, and nonjudgmental acceptance I challenge you to look at yourself and the situation from a different perspective. Using Evidence-Based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Feedback Informed Treatment I will help you reach the goals that are most important to you.
