About Glen

Glen Cognac is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience helping adults through addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. He grew his practice in Florida and focuses on practical recovery and steady progress. Glen speaks plain language and centers the person in treatment.

He earned a Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University and a bachelors degree in psychology from the University of South Florida. His background includes residential treatment, outpatient programs, community services, and crisis stabilization units.

Background and approach

That mix shaped his approach to both substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. Glen uses client-centered work combined with cognitive behavioral ideas and elements of dialectical behavior therapy. He also integrates EMDR and mindfulness techniques when they fit a person's needs.

Sessions focus on clearer thinking, skills practice, and processing difficult memories at a pace the client can handle. He often helps people manage stress from family roles, caregiver strain, or fatherhood challenges. Glen also supports those dealing with codependency, attachment wounds, and issues like guilt, shame, or impulsivity.

Practical steps and small behavior changes are common parts of his work. In therapy he aims to build understanding of why patterns repeat and then try different ways of responding. Conversations are collaborative and goal-focused.

Clients can expect straightforward feedback, skill coaching, and attention to recovery from substance use when it is present.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Glen often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR to address difficult memories and current symptoms. Client-centered therapy means the conversation follows the person's priorities and builds on their strengths to set goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. EMDR is used as an option to help process traumatic memories when someone and the therapist agree it may be helpful.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Glen will talk through options and adapt methods to fit a person's needs, goals, and comfort level. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and can change over time based on progress and preference.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support short check-ins or skill coaching between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
