About Alethea
Alethea Glave is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 10 years of experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical talking and problem-solving rather than jargon.
Glave often helps people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or unsure how to handle relationship strain. She also addresses issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, commitment worries, communication problems, and the fallout from infidelity or jealousy. Her work includes support for those coping with cultural or discrimination-related stress.
Her approach stays grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That means using methods shown to help reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She adapts the style of sessions to what each person needs and what seems to work in practice.
Alethea emphasizes clear, respectful conversation and collaborative planning. She helps clients set concrete goals and breaks larger problems into manageable steps. Practical skills and real-world strategies are part of sessions alongside emotional reflection.
People coming for help can expect direct, plain speech about next steps. Decisions about pace, focus, and techniques are made together. To start, Alethea asks about the current problem, what has helped before, and what reasonable short-term goals look like.
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical changes and learning new skills. For example, cognitive approaches look at unhelpful thoughts and teach ways to test and shift them, which can help with anxiety and negative self-talk. Behavioral strategies focus on small, repeated steps to build confidence and reduce avoidance, useful for social anxiety and phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review what you want to change, try specific methods, and adjust based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where goals and techniques are agreed on and refined over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking.

They can also let someone continue care during moves or schedule changes.
