Glenda works within a client-centred, trauma-informed, LGBTQ2i+ positive, anti-oppressive model of practice.

Glenda uses various tools and skills to support her work with clients as a psychotherapist, end-of-life-care practitioner, and yoga and mindfulness teacher. After thousands of clinical hours of practice, she is well-versed in many modalities to serve her clients based on their needs. But it doesn’t start with the tool – it starts with the client!

That said, she works with modalities that have been well-researched to offer support and help to clients.
