About Gloria

Gloria Cooper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who draws on 15 years of clinical experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and a wide range of other challenges.

Background and approach

She emphasizes cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns that contribute to mood and behavioral problems, and integrates other evidence-informed methods to expand coping skills and emotional awareness.

Her work includes support for grief, addictions, sleep and eating issues, parenting and anger management, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and concerns like hoarding, OCD patterns, gender dysphoria, and multicultural matters. Gloria blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build practical tools clients can use between sessions.

She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where people feel heard and can progress at their own pace. Based in Texas, Gloria tailors sessions to each person’s goals and circumstances, focusing on collaboration and skill-building to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

She works with clients who want concrete strategies as well as those seeking deeper emotional processing and relational understanding.

Online Therapy Approaches and How They Help

Gloria commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns and behaviors that maintain anxiety, depression, or unhelpful habits. CBT emphasizes practical exercises and skills that can be applied between sessions to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values, developing psychological flexibility, and learning mindfulness-based strategies to live in accordance with what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns and how early connections influence current relationships and emotional responses, helping clients reshape expectations and strengthen bonds.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gloria discusses goals, preferences, and life context with each client and tailors techniques accordingly rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Together the therapist and client evaluate what methods feel most effective and adjust over time to meet changing needs.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit therapy into busy schedules. These options make it easier to access regular care from different locations and allow the work to continue in a format that suits each person’s routine and communication style.
