About Gloria

Gloria Anderson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) licensed in Florida and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) licensed in Utah with 17 years of professional experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, addiction issues, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and depression. Gloria emphasizes that clients know their own stories and brings a straightforward, strengths-based attitude to sessions.

She listens for the patterns that keep someone stuck, such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing sense of self around others. Conversations focus on practical steps people can try between sessions. Gloria helps clients notice what is working, and where boundaries or habits might be getting in the way of healthier relationships and steadier moods.

Her work pays attention to how early family experiences shape current behavior. She addresses family of origin issues, communication problems, abandonment concerns, and codependency-related patterns without assigning blame. For people living with drug or alcohol struggles, process addictions, or the effects of trauma, she looks at coping skills, triggers, and safer ways to respond.

Gloria draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions and track progress over time. She encourages small, concrete changes - clearer communication, new boundaries, or adjusted daily routines - that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. She also supports people working through guilt, shame, panic, and self-harm thoughts with steady, practical planning.

To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Gloria draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and patterns. One common approach she uses involves structured work on thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms; this often means identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing new responses in daily life. Another approach centers on processing the effects of trauma and abuse by carefully working through distressing memories and learning coping strategies to manage triggers and intense emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gloria will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, and then try methods that fit those needs. She keeps the process collaborative and adjusts techniques based on how a person responds over time.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule therapy around work, childcare, or other commitments. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and for using audio-only options if bandwidth or video is difficult. Talk with the therapist about what practical arrangement will fit your routine and goals.
