About Gladys
Gladys Hollis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who aims to help people ready for change. She welcomes clients who want guidance and are willing to take active steps toward healing. Her work emphasizes understanding how past experiences shape present concerns so clients can build awareness and move forward.
Gladys draws on six years of clinical experience and a background as an educator and middle school counselor. That experience shaped her focus on individual needs and development. She emphasizes a warm, non-judgmental atmosphere where clients can reflect and grow.
She uses a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. In practice this means she helps people identify patterns, practice new skills, and try different ways of coping. The work often combines noticing thoughts and emotions with real-life behavior changes.
Gladys commonly assists people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. She also addresses concerns like ADHD, anger, career strain, compassion fatigue, and family-related struggles such as blended family issues and attachment concerns.
Sessions focus on building awareness, healing from past wounds, and developing practical strategies for daily life. Gladys aims to meet clients where they are and supports steady progress toward their goals.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, life transitions, and improving day-to-day functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people change how they relate to others and themselves. This approach can help with intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and caregiving stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each client to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they will try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so the work feels practical and relevant.
Confirm available session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people move between reflective conversation and skill practice without changing locations. Licensed professionals, including this therapist, can adapt sessions to focus on coping skills, relationship patterns, or goal planning in ways that suit each person's life.
