About Wendy
Wendy Glass Givens is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and family concerns. She practices in California and brings seven years of counseling experience to her work. Wendy aims to listen first and build a plan that fits each person’s situation.
She offers a calm space where clients can talk through painful feelings and learn clear, practical steps to feel better.
Background and approach
Her work is informed by Christian perspectives when that matters to a client, and she respects each person’s beliefs and values. Sessions focus on small changes that add up over time. In session she helps identify patterns that keep people stuck and tries out different coping skills.
She emphasizes building resilience, improving self-understanding, and creating manageable strategies for day-to-day life. Progress is measured by what feels different and useful to the client. Wendy holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, and practices under California license number CA LCSW 21318.
She offers several formats for contact, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit varied schedules. To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on her availability. Subscriptions cover sessions and can be canceled at any time, with pricing that varies by location and therapist availability.
Approaches and Online Care that Fit Your Schedule
Wendy uses evidence-based techniques that aim to reduce symptoms and build coping skills. One approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns to lower anxiety and depression; this helps people notice thoughts that make problems feel bigger and practice more balanced thinking. Another approach emphasizes practical skill-building for managing stress and improving self-esteem, using small exercises to build confidence and daily routines that feel doable.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Wendy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed so it fits real life and personal values.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make attendance easier. These options allow sessions around school, work, and caregiving responsibilities and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent. Licensed professionals can still guide skill practice, teach coping tools, and track progress even when meeting remotely.
