About Gloria
Gloria Frush is a California LMFT with 26 years of experience. She helps people who struggle with addictions, motivation, self esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and related life changes.
She begins by identifying a person's existing strengths. That Strengths-Based Therapy approach looks for what already works and then builds on those skills. Gloria integrates Wellness and Recovery principles to support steady progress rather than quick fixes.
In sessions she creates straightforward space to talk about thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. She listens for patterns that keep someone stuck and suggests small experiments to test new ways of responding.
Gloria also addresses issues such as body image, caregiver stress, loneliness, money worries, life purpose, workplace stress, and women's issues. These topics often link with mood problems and addictive behaviors, and she treats them together rather than separately.
Her style is candid and goal-focused. Clients work on clearer routines, coping strategies, and ways to strengthen motivation. The aim is steady, realistic change that fits everyday life.
How Gloria applies evidence-based approaches online
Gloria often works from a Strengths-Based perspective that looks for existing skills and resources a person can use more often. This approach helps when confidence or motivation feels low by identifying small, practical changes that build on what already helps.She also follows Wellness and Recovery principles, which focus on steady progress, relapse prevention for addictions, and managing mood patterns over time. That framework supports planning concrete routines and coping steps that can be practiced between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Gloria will review your goals and preferences and suggest options that fit your situation. Together you decide which techniques to try and adjust them as you learn what works.
Confirm current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into daily life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or sessions that avoid travel time. Talk with her after the matching questionnaire to confirm the practical arrangements that suit your schedule.
