Chiya Glenn

Chiya Glenn is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting concerns, and self-esteem issues. She also addresses chronic pain and illness, forgiveness, guilt and shame, social anxiety and phobia, and questions about life purpose.

Chiya frames clients as the experts on their own stories. She listens for strengths people already use and builds on them. Sessions are practical and aim to make daily life more manageable. She speaks plainly and helps people name what feels most pressing.

In sessions she works collaboratively to identify small, usable steps. Conversations may include learning ways to reduce anxiety, approaches for coping after loss, and strategies for managing parenting stress. When trauma or abuse is part of the picture, she helps people pace their processing and find steady ways to cope.

She also supports people who are carrying long-term physical health challenges and the emotional strain that can bring. Issues like guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose are treated as real topics to talk through rather than labels to fix. Chiya aims to make sessions feel relevant to everyday responsibilities.

People meet her to talk about what’s stuck, what’s overwhelming, or what comes next after a big change. Her style is straightforward and focused on practical steps a person can try between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are central to her work. One common approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavioral steps that reduce overwhelm and help with daily functioning. Another approach addresses trauma and post-traumatic stress with gradual pacing and stabilization techniques so people can process difficult memories without becoming retraumatized. A third strand involves practical problem-solving for parenting or chronic illness, helping clients identify small changes that make routines easier.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to test methods and decide what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions typically combine conversation with concrete practice and follow-up tasks, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to keep therapy consistent after a major life change. Licensed professionals help match the method and scheduling to what best fits an individual's life.
