About Gloria
Gloria Gitlin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She brings three years of counseling experience drawn from work in private practice, a psychiatric hospital, and several agencies. Gloria values clear thinking and practical change, and she uses language and thought patterns to help people shift what gets in the way of daily life.
She holds a Master’s degree in psychology and a Ph.D. in linguistics, which informs her interest in how language shapes thought and behavior. Gloria pays attention to the words people use and how those words influence feelings and actions. This focus helps her identify patterns that keep problems stuck.
In sessions she helps people look closely at thoughts, beliefs, and feelings to find the situations that cause disruption. Conversations aim to pinpoint unhelpful thinking and test new ways of noticing and responding. The work is practical and aimed at everyday improvements rather than abstract ideas.
Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and relationship or family-related struggles. She also supports people dealing with life changes, grief, communication problems, control issues, and feelings of shame or isolation.
Gloria favors approaches that focus on thought and behavior change while honoring emotions. She encourages clients to learn how their thinking affects their actions, try small shifts, and build clearer patterns for healthier days.
How these therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors, and teaches practical skills to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. CBT is often used for stress, depression, and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and emotional responses, and can help when connection difficulties affect current relationships or parenting concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gloria will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying a technique, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to a single method.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing quicker check-ins, and offering options that suit different energy levels such as shorter conversations when needed. Many people find that working from their regular routine helps them practice changes between sessions and bring real situations into the conversation.
