About Valerie
Dr. Valerie Glass brings a client-centered approach to her practice, emphasizing collaboration and a respectful atmosphere that helps people explore anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and relationship difficulties.
Background and approach
She holds a doctorate in marriage and family therapy and has nearly 20 years of experience working in diverse clinical settings. As a licensed marriage and family therapist Dr.
Glass combines clinical work with teaching students who are training to become therapists. Her practice includes focused support for LGBT concerns, women's issues, family problems, and intimacy-related topics, along with attention to sleep and eating difficulties, grief, anger, and mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and depression.
She also lists ADHD among her areas of focus and works with clients facing career challenges, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Dr.
Glass aims to meet people where they are, offering a nonjudgmental space that balances understanding with practical direction and accountability. Availability is currently limited to daytime scheduling for new clients or text-only arrangements, and sessions are offered through multiple remote formats.
She frames therapy as a process of change tailored to each person's goals and values, supporting clients as they define and pursue their own paths to well-being.
Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and reflects what matters most to the client; this approach helps people clarify values and build motivation for change. Narrative therapy focuses on the stories people tell about their lives and separates the person from the problem, which can be useful for concerns around identity, relationships, and meaning. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on practical steps and strengths, helping clients identify small, achievable goals and track progress toward specific changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and may blend elements from these approaches to tailor sessions to individual needs. This shared planning helps make therapy more relevant and actionable.
Online sessions using video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with different schedules and needs. Remote formats make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions, to fit therapy into a busy routine, and to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward therapeutic goals.
