About Gloria

Gloria Gitlin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She combines her background in psychology and linguistics to help people make sense of thoughts and feelings. Gloria writes plainly and listens closely to what each person says and how they describe their world.

She has worked in independent practice, a psychiatric hospital, and community agencies. That mix of settings means she is used to short-term crisis work and longer conversations about life changes.

Background and approach

Gloria pays attention to language because words shape how people think and act, and adjusting those patterns can change daily behavior. Her style blends practical thinking work with emotional reflection. Sessions often include talking through thoughts, noticing patterns, and trying small experiments to test new behaviors.

She uses elements from cognitive-behavioral approaches as well as acceptance and emotion-focused ideas to help people move forward. Gloria helps with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship difficulties, and ADHD. She also supports people dealing with self-esteem, guilt, isolation, life purpose, and major transitions like divorce or separation.

People who prefer clear explanations and step-by-step changes often find her approach helpful. She focuses on identifying unhelpful beliefs, exploring feelings, and finding practical next steps so daily life feels more manageable.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses small experiments and practice to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with worry, low mood, and ADHD-related challenges. Attachment-Based ideas focus on how early relationships shape expectations and reactions, and they help people improve how they connect and handle conflict.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals, try methods that seem likely to help, and adjust the plan based on what works. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions reflect their needs and preferences.

Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit care into busy lives. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter updates, ongoing encouragement, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options increase flexibility and let people continue therapy during life transitions or busy schedules.
