About Gloria
Gloria is a down-to-earth therapist who believes therapy doesn’t have to be complicated. She creates a warm, comfortable space where you can be yourself without feeling judged or pressured.
She became a counselor because she understands that life can be hard, and sometimes we all need a safe place to slow down, make sense of what we’re going through, and figure out what comes next. Gloria believes that you don’t have to have everything figured out before you come to therapy.
For Fun: When she’s not working, Gloria enjoys spending time with her family and friends, relaxing at home, watching a good show or movie, listening to music, getting her nails done, and playing with her fur baby, Hazel.

Approach
Gloria keeps therapy simple, practical, and focused on what matters to you. She believes the relationship between therapist and client is just as important as the techniques used in therapy. Her goal is to help you feel safe, understood, and comfortable enough to do the work at your own pace.
Therapy isn’t about being told what to do. It’s about having someone walk alongside you while you figure out what you need and where you want to go.
