About Michael

Dr. Michael Glynn is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and concerns related to LGBT identity and self-esteem. He focuses on practical steps that make daily life easier. He emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters most to them.

He uses straightforward conversations to identify what is getting in the way of change. Sessions often focus on small, achievable goals and clearer ways to handle tough moments. He encourages people to notice patterns and try different responses to old problems.

With eight years of experience, he draws on several approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include client-centered techniques that follow the client’s lead and cognitive behavioral ideas that look at thoughts and behaviors. Motivational interviewing and narrative or solution-focused strategies may also be used when they fit the situation.

Dr. Glynn places emphasis on supporting caregivers and people facing relationship or identity stress. He helps clients talk through feelings of abandonment, shame, loneliness, and body image concerns. He also works with people dealing with drug and alcohol problems, HIV / AIDS related issues, and infidelity.

People can expect respectful listening and concrete next steps in sessions. The aim is practical change rather than long explanations. To start, clients complete a brief questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.

How his methods translate to online work

Dr. Glynn often draws on client-centered therapy, which centers sessions on the client's priorities and helps people explore their own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs space to be heard and to shape what they want from therapy.

He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps when someone wants concrete tools to manage anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful habits. Motivational interviewing may be used to strengthen willingness to change, especially around addictions or motivation challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress is made.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make scheduling around caregiving duties simpler, since sessions can often be arranged to match daily routines.
