About Glenna

Glenna Henson is a licensed counselor with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, and self-esteem struggles. She holds LPCC and LPMHC credentials and practices in Kentucky. Glenna aims to make the first step toward change feel achievable and supported.

Her approach is straightforward and people-focused. She builds an atmosphere where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions focus on practical ways to cope and to find more balance in daily life.

Glenna draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods to shape sessions. She mixes these with mindfulness and narrative techniques when helpful, matching tools to what each person needs. This means sessions may include noticing patterns, experimenting with small behavior changes, and clarifying values to guide choices.

Over her career she has worked with a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, addictions, mood issues, and relationship-related stress. Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, body image, caregiver stress, and family of origin concerns.

Glenna speaks English and practices in Kentucky. She encourages people to take a careful look at their goals and to move at a pace that feels right. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns like codependency by clarifying what matters and guiding action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. This approach often helps with anxiety, mood problems, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client's pace to build clarity and confidence.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Glenna collaborates with each person to pick approaches that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan over time so the therapy feels useful and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that using these methods remotely still supports meaningful progress when the approach and schedule match their daily routine.
