About Gladys
Gladys Hollis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who works with people ready to make changes. She focuses on helping individuals who want guidance through stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Gladys writes plainly and uses practical steps so clients can act between sessions.
She draws on six years of counseling experience and a background as a former educator and middle school counselor. That experience shaped her interest in how past events influence current behavior and relationships.
Background and approach
Gladys pays attention to each person's history and how it connects to present struggles. Gladys uses Narrative-informed ideas alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. She prefers approaches that help people name their stories, notice unhelpful patterns, and choose different actions that match their values.
Sessions aim to build awareness and small, achievable changes. Her work also incorporates attachment-based thinking and client-centered values. That means she listens closely, looks for patterns in relationships, and helps clients find their own strengths.
She emphasizes building perseverance and practical tools for daily life. People who come to Gladys can expect a warm, straightforward style. She focuses on root causes rather than only treating symptoms.
Her goal is to support clients as they develop longer-term coping skills and clearer direction.

Online session options
How narrative and action-focused methods work online
Gladys combines Narrative ideas with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-based thinking to address everyday problems. Narrative approaches help people tell and reframe the stories that shape their choices, which can be useful for issues like self-esteem, identity, and relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and learning simple actions that move a person toward those values, helping with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns show up now and guide work on communication and emotional connection.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try out ways of working, and adjust methods based on what helps. That collaborative process aims to match practical tools to your needs rather than impose a single method.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between appointments or communicate without being on camera. These formats let clients fit sessions around work, family, and daily life while using the same therapeutic approaches discussed above.
