About Glenn Jacob-Oviatt

Glenn Jacob-Oviatt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with five years of experience supporting adults facing mood and anxiety challenges. He spent that time working in an adult mental health inpatient setting, where he organized and led groups devoted to anxiety reduction, DBT skills, anger management, mindfulness practice, communication skills, and creative self-expression through art and writing. Those group experiences shaped a practical, skills-focused approach to helping people cope with intense emotions and stressful life transitions.

He specializes in working with adults who experience anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and difficulty adjusting to major life changes. He also supports people dealing with stress, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, career concerns, and compassion fatigue. His clinical interests extend to issues such as abandonment, codependency, control struggles, emptiness, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, and men's issues.

Glenn brings a strong interest in writing and narrative-based work to his practice and uses a person-centered approach that integrates mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). His aim is to accompany clients as they build insight, develop practical habits to improve well-being, and gently challenge unhelpful thinking patterns to support meaningful growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Glenn integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into his online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting each person with empathy and respect, helping clients explore their priorities and values so they can set meaningful goals. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and supports practical strategies for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression. DBT emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Glenn works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors techniques and exercises so clients can try different strategies and notice what helps them move forward.

Online sessions through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living far from in-person care. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact, practice skills between sessions, and access support from licensed professionals in ways that fit everyday life.
