About Gloria
Gloria Anderson is a licensed mental health counselor holding LMHC and LCMHC credentials and has 17 years of professional experience. She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and depression. Gloria speaks English and practices in Utah while also holding licensure in Florida.
Her style centers on working with the person’s own strengths and perspective. She helps people talk through what’s happening in their life, identify small practical changes, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. Sessions focus on clear, steady steps rather than big abstract goals.
Gloria has long experience supporting people coping with substance use and process addictions, including gambling and compulsive sexual behavior. She also addresses patterns such as codependency, abandonment concerns, and problems that come from difficult family relationships. For someone dealing with panic or mood shifts, she works on recognizing triggers and adding coping tools.
Trauma and post-traumatic stress are part of her practice as well. She assists people in understanding how past events affect current thoughts and behaviors, and in developing safer ways to respond to reminders or intense emotions. She also supports people working through guilt, shame, and self-harm thoughts with steady, practical strategies.
To begin, she asks people to share the story they know best - their own - and uses that as the basis for planning next steps. The intake process includes a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the online therapy options button.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Gloria uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life changes. One common approach she uses helps people learn to recognize and respond to triggers for anxiety and panic by practicing specific coping exercises and gradual exposure to feared situations. Another approach focuses on behavior patterns involved in addiction and codependency, breaking down those patterns into manageable steps and building alternative behaviors. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then suggest techniques that fit. If a method isn’t working, adjustments are made together rather than sticking to a single plan. The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to schedule around work, quieter when needed, or useful for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Working online lets therapists focus on skills practice, tracking progress, and supporting coping between sessions without assuming any particular format.Areas of expertise
