About Gloria

Gloria Whitcraft is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people navigate relationship and family struggles. She offers straightforward support for difficulties like trauma, depression, and communication breakdowns. Gloria speaks plainly and focuses on each person’s strengths to guide change.

Background and approach

Gloria aims to make the process feel doable and direct for those feeling stuck. Her work often includes coaching around stress and caregiver burdens. She also addresses separation and divorce issues, social anxiety, mood concerns, and post-traumatic stress.

Communication skills and rebuilding connection are common topics in her sessions. Gloria combines approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and elements of the Gottman Method to shape treatment. She listens first, then offers tools and practices suited to each person’s situation.

The goal is steady, manageable progress toward clearer relationships and better daily functioning. Sessions are tailored to what a person wants to change and how they prefer to work. Gloria supports people in taking practical steps, testing new habits, and building on what already works in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit family life

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and helping people make choices that match their values and strengths. It’s useful when someone wants a compassionate space to sort priorities and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. It gives concrete steps a person can practice between sessions. The Gottman Method targets relationship patterns and teaches specific skills for communication and conflict management, which can help couples or partners rebuild connection and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gloria will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on the situation, goals, and personal preferences. She starts by listening, then suggests tools and exercises to try together so the plan matches real life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. These formats make it easier to move between sessions, use skills in daily moments, and get consistent support without long travel. The mix of approaches and flexible formats aims to help people make steady progress while balancing family responsibilities.

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.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.
