About Gladys

Gladys Hollis offers therapy for people who are motivated to make change and willing to engage in steps toward healing. She emphasizes addressing root causes rather than only relieving surface symptoms, helping clients build self-awareness and resilience through intentional work.

Background and approach

As a former educator and current middle school counselor, she brings experience in guiding individuals according to their unique needs and developmental context. Her approach blends structured and relational methods, with particular use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside other evidence-informed practices.

Gladys frames past experiences as important influences on present concerns and collaborates with clients to deepen understanding, process difficult emotions, and develop practical coping strategies. With six years of clinical experience and an LPC credential, she aims to offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore values, strengthen skills, and pursue lasting change.

Therapeutic approaches and online flexibility

Gladys commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into work with clients. CBT focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering concrete tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT emphasizes values, present-moment awareness, and committed action to help people move toward meaningful goals even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns, which can be useful for addressing intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and attachment concerns. In practice she approaches treatment collaboratively, helping clients test different methods and decide together which approach best fits their needs and personal goals.

Online therapy with Gladys is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for differing schedules and preferences. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work or family commitments, and they allow clients to engage in therapy from locations that are convenient for them. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and supports to these formats so clients can progress using approaches that match their goals.
