About Glen
Glen Cognac is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of hands-on experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. He focuses on practical steps people can use right away. His style is direct and collaborative.
He aims to make sessions feel focused and manageable for someone juggling daily demands. Glen trained at Florida Atlantic University where he earned a Master’s degree in Social Work and began his clinical career in residential treatment settings.
Background and approach
He also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of South Florida. Over the years he has worked in outpatient programs, community services, and crisis stabilization units. Many clients see him for substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns.
He also helps people cope with grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. Glen pays attention to patterns like attachment wounds, codependency, impulsivity, and issues tied to fatherhood and caregiving stress. His sessions draw on client-centered methods and practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy.
He includes mindfulness practices and trauma-focused techniques when they fit the work. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier moods, and choices that match personal goals. Glen prefers a straightforward, respectful approach.
He works side by side with each person to identify what matters most and build doable skills. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit busy schedules.
Therapy methods and online access
Glen commonly uses client-centered work to center the person's goals and experience. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and shaping the plan around what the individual wants to change. It helps when someone needs a supportive, nonjudgmental space to make practical decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another frequent tool he uses. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, mood struggles, and behavior change related to addiction.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Glen will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and jointly decide which methods to try. That collaboration makes it easier to pick techniques that fit daily life and long-term aims.
Online therapy offers flexibility that many people need. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief updates, on-the-go problem solving, and ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care around work, family, and recovery commitments.
