About Gloria
Gloria Thompson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of practice based in Indiana. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. Many clients come for help with ADHD symptoms, sleep problems, self-esteem, career stress, or relationship and intimacy concerns.
Gloria uses straightforward methods rooted in client-centered care. She listens without judgment and works with each person to set clear, practical goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small steps that fit into everyday life rather than abstract ideas. Her style draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and change routines that keep problems going. She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify what’s already working and build on it.
Mindfulness practices are introduced when helpful to reduce anxiety and improve focus. Gloria approaches health holistically, noting how sleep, stress, and daily habits affect mood and energy. She helps people make changes across these areas so improvements stick.
The work is collaborative - clients and therapist plan realistic actions together. She emphasizes respect and a positive tone during sessions. Gloria acknowledges that change is hard and focuses on practical support to move forward.
If someone is ready to set goals and try small, manageable steps, she will help create a plan and check progress along the way.

Online support
How Gloria’s approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, helps set goals, and adjusts pacing to match needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and routines that maintain problems and breaks them into actionable steps. It works well online when the therapist and client plan specific exercises to try between meetings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Gloria will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That may mean mixing strategies, testing what helps, and changing plans as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a shorter break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or school commitments and to keep momentum between meetings.
