About Glendenise

Glendenise McPherson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of practice based in New York. She describes her work as helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. She also notes a focus on attachment issues, blended family issues, codependency, isolation and loneliness, jealousy, narcissism, and learning self-love.

In sessions she listens to what is most pressing and practical. She helps people name specific problems and find steps they can use right away. Conversations tend to focus on how thoughts, behaviors, and daily routines affect mood and relationships. That makes the work concrete and action-oriented rather than abstract.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and change small habits that keep problems going. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to map out short-term goals and build on what already works in a person’s life. These approaches are blended to match each person’s needs and goals.

People who contact her often want help balancing relationship demands with personal well-being. That can include managing blended household tensions, sorting loyalty conflicts, or coping with a partner's past relationships. Most conversations are straightforward and task-focused, aimed at clearer decisions and calmer days.

Her stated practice includes working from a strengths-based angle and encouraging honest reflection. To begin, people follow the provider's online steps to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How CBT and solution-focused work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot thinking patterns that increase worry or conflict. Online CBT sessions focus on identifying those thoughts and practicing small behavior changes to test new ways of coping. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on short-term goals and existing strengths, using short, practical steps to move toward a clearer situation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs do over time.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow for shorter check-ins on difficult days, and remove commute time. They can also make it simpler to follow up on homework between meetings. If specific formats are important, check the listed options when you schedule so sessions match your day-to-day needs.
