About Glenn

Glenn House is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues. He brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions and prioritizes building a strong relationship with each client. Glenn speaks English and Tagalog and works from Michigan, using online formats as part of his practice.

Glenn has eight years of counseling experience plus many additional years in teaching, sales, and construction.

Background and approach

That background shapes a straightforward approach that values clear goals and steady progress. He uses tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative work. In sessions he aims to make things simple and useful.

Parents can expect help with managing stress, parenting challenges, blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver strain. He also addresses anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, eating concerns, self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Glenn combines evidence-informed techniques with a respectful attitude toward each family's values.

He can integrate clients' faith perspectives if desired and appropriate. He has experience working with children and adolescents and supporting their families in home and virtual settings. Practical steps are emphasized.

Glenn helps set clear, achievable goals and teaches skills to manage emotions and behavior. Sessions tend to be collaborative, focused, and paced to fit the family’s needs and schedule.

Online approaches that fit family life

Glenn frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for handling strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive behavior, which can be useful for anger, mood instability, and coping during crises.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Glenn treats choice of method as collaborative and adjusts strategies to match a family's goals, culture, and daily routines. He explains options in simple terms and checks in often to make sure the approach feels helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families. Video calls let parents and children join from home, while phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to follow up between meetings. These options help fit therapy into work, school, and caregiving schedules and provide regular opportunities to practice new skills in real life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
