About Glenna

Glenna Henson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor (LPMHC) with 25 years of experience. She is licensed in Kentucky and Delaware and works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, parenting strain, and anger. She also supports people managing career pressure, sleep and eating difficulties, and issues linked to attachment and family of origin.

Henson’s approach centers on practical, evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful patterns and try new responses. She also draws on Client-Centered and Narrative Therapy ideas to help people make sense of their stories and values.

In sessions she focuses on clear goals and small, doable steps. Conversations often include looking at thoughts and behaviors, practicing mindful awareness, and experimenting with different coping skills between visits. People can expect straightforward feedback and guided exercises to try at home.

Her background includes long-term clinical work across settings with adults facing addictions, mood concerns, and trauma-related issues. That experience informs concrete strategies for managing strong emotions and reducing reactivity in relationships and at work.

Those interested in beginning can follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first session. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted at this time.

How approach and online sessions fit together

Glenna uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core tools. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical experiments to test new ways of responding.

She also draws on Client-Centered and Narrative Therapy ideas to help people make sense of their life stories and build direction from their own values. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what actually helps.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins during a lunch break, sessions without travel, or fewer interruptions to work and family routines. Therapists can suggest exercises to practice between sessions so progress continues between meetings.
