I like the progress I have made with Gloria. She is good with listening and has helped me with realizing my own emotions. And she continues to do so. More so, she understands my situation and helps me set and track my goals to build my mental and emotional health.

More about Gloria

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana with 20 years of experience. I have worked with people challenged by depression, anxiety, substance use, family challenges, and life changing situations. The clientele that I am currently working with are those that are experiencing depression, anxiety, high stress, learning to manage ADHD symptoms, struggling with time management, and/ or those looking to for Holistic care. (please note that I am not trained to help those heal from Trauma). My approach is solution focused, client centered, and strengths based drawing heavily from Cognitive Behavioral Theory. I also believe in taking a Holistic approach to health, as our body and minds are connected.

When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, and safe. I know that Change is Hard. I will work with you to overcome things that are challenging you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I am excited to meet you. We will work together to identify your goals and make plans to achieve them!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
