Glenda Sloan, LPC — Therapist in Georgia

Hi there, I'm Glenda!

My approach is to provide a safe, welcoming environment for clients to express their concerns and hopes for improvement. Requesting help when it is needed is wise, and I am excited to journey with you on your pathway to better.

My focus

I work most effectively with teenagers, adults, and couples facing relationship conflicts and life crises. If you are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, heartbroken, or angry with the events in your life, I am here to listen to what happened to you, and together we can develop a plan for change.

My approach

My approach is client-centered because your experiences matter. I primarily use Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Reality Therapy, but will provide eclectic therapy to meet your needs. I believe that your thoughts, feelings, and actions matter, so choosing to change some things will be important as you set goals.

My communication style

I am a compassionate listener and will not judge. I will offer some other options for your consideration because you will be making the decisions for your life. I believe you deserve to be heard, and I offer you the truth gently because words have power. I will encourage you to speak kindly to yourself because love begins with you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always wanted to help others feel better, and my life's work has done just that in one form or another. Helping those dealing with a life crisis has been the most rewarding experience. Counseling is not a career to me, it is a calling.

My goals for you

I believe that each client knows what is needed, even if they do not know how to verbalize it, so I will listen and use your words to develop a plan for change. Some clients will need more support than others, and that will be provided as needed.

Our first session

In our first session, I will be gathering a history from you, so there will be many questions, and I want you to be open and honest. What you share is confidential. Your time with me is important, so when we meet, we will work to make progress, and I frequently give assignments.
