About Gloria
Gloria Gitlin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She has worked in private practice, a psychiatric hospital, and several agencies. Gloria combines counseling and teaching experience and focuses on practical changes people can make when life feels off track.
She holds a master's degree in psychology and earlier completed a Ph.D. in linguistics. That background makes her interested in how language and thought shape feelings and behavior. Gloria describes thinking patterns as central to how people act and relate to their world.
In sessions she pays attention to thoughts, beliefs, and feelings to identify what is creating disruption. She talks with clients about how perceptions influence reactions, and how shifting perspective can alter everyday experience. The work centers on finding the thoughts that lead to recurring problems.
Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. ADHD, social anxiety, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation and life purpose are also areas she addresses.
Gloria uses a multi-faceted approach that draws on several evidence-based methods. She will help people look at thinking patterns and the language they use, then test new ways of responding. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and more workable choices in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions are used
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) looks at values and committed action while teaching skills to notice thoughts without being driven by them. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and decisions about life purpose.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and patterns that maintain stress or conflict.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust practice based on what helps. This means approaches may be combined or shifted as the work progresses.
The biography does not specify particular online formats, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and permit shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. They can also allow sessions when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a format that uses less bandwidth.
