My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have over 20 plus years experience with Cognitive Behavior Therapy with women, children, teens, families, older adults, etc. I use it in my practice to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, behaviors and actions.
Trauma Informed Care
I have been trained in trauma informed care and use it to gentle guide clients on their healing journey.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have used Dialectical Behavior Therapy to gently guide clients from acceptance to action, empowering them to learn skills to not only monitor their mood, manage their emotions and communicate them.
Faith based therapy
I use Faith Based therapy to guide clients of faith to embrace their faith as they strive to improve their social emotional well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-Based Therapy is used to help clients with reducing their symptoms of anxiety and depression by embracing being presently aware.

Dr. Glenda has helped me to set goals for my parenting skills, and she has helped me reframe my thinking about my interactions with my children. This has helped me to stay calm in stressful times of parenting.
