About Glenna

Glenna Henson is a licensed professional counselor who brings 25 years of experience to her work. She is licensed as an LPCC and as an LPMHC and practices in Kentucky. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, and self-esteem struggles.

Her approach centers on building an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk honestly about what they are feeling. She uses practical, hands-on strategies so conversations lead to small changes people can use day to day. Glenna listens first, then works with each person to set realistic goals that match their life and needs.

Glenna draws from several methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Those approaches help with problems like anger, coping with loss, substance use, and mood concerns by focusing on values, thinking patterns, and emotional experience. She also uses mindfulness and narrative techniques to help people notice patterns and try new responses.

Over her career she has supported people through family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, caregiver stress, and difficulties with sleep or eating. She also addresses challenges such as domestic violence aftermath, dissociation, and disruptive mood regulation issues.

Glenna aims to be a calm, steady presence as people take steps toward better coping and clearer decision making. She encourages gradual progress and practical tools that fit everyday life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when strong feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building an accepting relationship so people can explore difficult feelings and decisions at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best. Discussion about goals, daily life, and personal preferences guides which techniques are emphasized and how sessions proceed.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and client-centered methods to remote work so practical exercises, values-based planning, and thought-monitoring can continue between meetings.
