About Glendenise

Glendenise McPherson is a licensed clinical social worker with seven years of professional experience practicing in New York. She draws on a strengths-oriented perspective to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, and concerns around self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

Glendenise frames change as an attainable process and encourages clients to acknowledge their own courage and capacities as the groundwork for growth. Her work also touches on attachment-related dynamics, blended family challenges, codependency, loneliness and jealousy, and issues related to narcissism and self-love.

Glendenise blends practical, goal-focused techniques with empathic support to help clients identify patterns, try new strategies, and build sustainable habits. She aims to create a collaborative space where clients can explore struggles honestly and move toward more fulfilling ways of living.

Practical Therapy Approaches for Online Support

Glendenise uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and to practice concrete skills that reduce distress. CBT typically involves identifying thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems, testing alternative perspectives, and building new strategies for coping with anxiety, low mood, and stress.

She also incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy, which emphasizes clarifying small, achievable goals and leveraging existing strengths to produce meaningful change. This approach is useful for clients who want to focus on actionable steps and measurable progress in areas like relationship functioning, motivation, and self-esteem.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and will adapt techniques over time so the work aligns with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are impractical.
