About Glenna

Glenna Henson is a licensed counselor who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress and build healthier habits. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice troublesome thoughts and take steps that match their values. Glenna emphasizes plain language and steady support so conversations feel down-to-earth and useful from the first visit.

She has 25 years of experience and holds Kentucky LPCC 104850 and Delaware LPMHC PC-0011766.

Background and approach

Glenna meets people where they are and focuses on clear goals. She works to make sessions feel like a calm place to sort through what matters and to try new ways of coping. Typical concerns she addresses include anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and problems with sleep or eating.

Additional areas she focuses on include attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, codependency, and caregiver stress. Glenna also supports people dealing with anger, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. Her style is collaborative and grounded.

Conversations move between understanding life patterns and practicing small, concrete changes. Glenna helps people test what works and adjust plans along the way. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

The process begins with a short questionnaire and scheduling that fits each persons needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that fit their values rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, addiction, and for people wanting clearer direction in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. That approach works well for mood, sleep, anxiety, and some behavior-based concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the clients lead and offers empathy and reflection to support change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Glenna will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may mix approaches as progress is made and priorities shift, and the plan is adjusted together over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, revisit ideas between sessions through messaging, and use face-to-face conversation when depth is needed. The variety of formats helps people access support in ways that suit their daily life and comfort level.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
