About Glen

Glen Briggs is a New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 37 years of experience in community behavioral health. He brings long-term practice in mental health and addiction settings, including work in co-occurring continuing day treatment programs.

Background and approach

Over decades he has provided individual therapy, group counseling, psycho-educational groups, couples and family therapy, and crisis phone counseling, often supporting people facing both mental health conditions and concurrent addictions or physical health challenges. Glen favors an eclectic, practical style that emphasizes solution-focused strategies and problem-solving skills while drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered principles.

He values collaboration and ongoing feedback to tailor interventions to each person’s needs, and clients have found his nonjudgmental manner and use of humor helpful in building a productive working relationship. Based in New York, he lists ADHD among his areas of focus alongside concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addictions, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Glen commonly draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on each person's perspective and promotes self-directed growth through empathic listening and genuine collaboration. This approach helps people who benefit from a supportive environment that prioritizes personal goals and preferences.

He also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques, which focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. CBT is often useful for concerns like anxiety, stress, mood difficulties, and many everyday coping challenges.

Finding the best approach is treated as a collaborative process. Glen emphasizes ongoing feedback and partnership so that the therapeutic methods evolve to match a client's needs, goals, and comfort level rather than relying on a fixed protocol.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult, and let people choose the communication style that feels most effective for them.
