Background and approach
Glen works with issues around self-esteem, career stress, parenting strain, and relationship or family conflict. Glen believes each person knows their story best. He listens first, then offers tools and strategies that fit the person’s goals and daily life.
Sessions often focus on building skills that make small changes add up over time. He has spent many years helping first responders and people affected by HIV/AIDS, and he brings experience in hospice and end-of-life counseling and intellectual disability supports. Glen emphasizes straightforward coaching alongside therapy-style conversations when that helps someone move forward.
Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Glen asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability to begin working together.
How evidence-based techniques work online
Glen often relies on practical, evidence-based techniques that teach clear skills. One common approach focuses on coping skills for anxiety and stress - it teaches breathing, pacing, and simple behavior changes that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach centers on relapse prevention and planning for addictions, which helps people spot triggers, create step-by-step plans, and build healthier routines.Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Glen will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, challenges, and daily life. He listens to what has helped before and adjusts strategies as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling easier to fit into a busy schedule. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more connection is helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options give flexibility so therapy can adapt to work, family, and other responsibilities.
