About Glenda
Glenda Clementson is an ACA counsellor with 15 years' experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, addiction and relationship problems. She listens closely and works with clients on grief, depression, panic, trauma and a range of life changes. Her voice is steady and practical, aimed at people who want clearer thinking and calmer days.
Glenda uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She helps clients notice how thoughts, feelings and body sensations connect, and then practices new skills together.
Background and approach
Sessions often include simple strategies to reduce tension, improve sleep and manage urges linked to addiction. Her background includes work in a family export business and roles in not-for-profit homelessness services and drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres. That variety gives her experience with everyday pressures, caregiving stress and complex life stories.
Glenda believes clients already carry strengths and inner resources. She helps people find those strengths by listening to the body's signals and exploring emotions in a gentle way. Progress comes from small, practical steps rather than grand promises.
People who choose Glenda can expect a supportive, down-to-earth approach. She aims to empower clients to make changes that fit their life, whether that means improving relationships, managing ADHD and attention challenges, or finding ways to cope after loss.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape emotions and behaviour. Online work using this approach looks at patterns in close connections and helps people build safer ways to relate and respond to stress and fear.Client-Centred Therapy centres on a respectful, non-directive relationship. The counsellor follows the person's lead, offering empathy and reflection so people can find their own solutions and strengthen self-esteem.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. In online sessions clients learn exercises to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and manage cravings or mood swings through step-by-step practice.
Finding the right approach is part of beginning work together. The counsellor will talk about goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then suggest methods to try. This collaborative process makes it easier to adjust the focus as needs change.
Online sessions can be via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for more in-depth conversations and skill practice, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits short check-ins or ongoing support. These options provide flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving and other commitments.
