As a graduate of the University of Southern California and an active-duty Navy Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families around the world including children, teens, spouses, GS employees, retirees, and active-duty service members.
I believe that healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where you can explore life's challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work and more than 11 years of experience supporting individuals, families, and communities. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings, helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and complex systems. Before becoming a social worker, I spent several years as a grassroots community organizer, advocating alongside individuals and communities to address systemic barriers and promote social change. That experience continues to shape my belief that every person's story is influenced by both their personal experiences and the larger systems around them.
My approach is compassionate, culturally responsive, and strengths-based. I recognize that seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I strive to create a space where you can show up as your authentic self without judgment. Together, we'll identify your goals, build practical tools, and work toward the life you want to create.
Whether you're navigating a difficult season, processing past experiences, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey.
Hi there! How's the search for a therapist going? Amidst your sea of options, here's what you need to know about me: I use holistic approaches that value my clients’ trust in their own body and emotions. I specialize in religious trauma, postpartum, and parenthood issues, depression, anxiety, and other traumas. I am a sex-positive LGBTQ+ ally who is HAES aligned. I support Black Lives Matter. Let's talk if that feels in alignment with what you're looking for.
I have been providing individual and couples therapy since I graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015, and I specialize in treating adults.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
My name is Glen Alan Ensinger. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I lived in Colorado for over 1 year and was licensed last March. I have been licensed as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois since 2002. I have provided crisis counseling and domestic violence counseling for perpetrators and victims. I completed my master's degree at Western Illinois University which included a practicum and internship at White Oaks in Peoria, Illinois. This is a substance abuse program. I have worked at a school for children with behavioral problems and also have provided counseling and crisis services at a community mental health center. For approximately 10 years I was on clinical staff for the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria, Illinois where I provided counseling services for clients in the HIV program. I worked over 8 years at the 9th Judicial Court in Illinois as a court services therapist. I have a private practice that includes working for programs that helped children either get adopted or return home from the foster care program (or help parents get the children returned to them). My primary work has been with families, couples and children. I use dialectical behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and general Rogerian therapy to help people live more successful lives.
I believe healing happens when we no longer carry our stories alone. I strive to create a space where you're celebrated and understood exactly as you are now. Together, we'll deconstruct stories shaped by shame to create narratives rooted in agency, authenticity and self-compassion.
As a queer, non-binary, non-monogamous therapist with lived experience of trauma, I specialize in working with queer, transgender, and non-monogamous adults (18+) navigating complex trauma (CPTSD), identity formation, depression, anxiety and neurodivergence.
Life can look successful on the outside while feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck on the inside. I work with adults, especially men, as well as boys and teens navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, questions of identity or purpose, and the pressures of work, school, or family life. Together we'll better understand what's keeping you stuck and build a path toward greater clarity, connection, and lasting change.
You may look like you are holding everything together while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted underneath. I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use and recovery, co-occurring concerns, and difficult life transitions.
With 19 years of behavioral health experience, I bring extensive experience in addiction and recovery and am trained in EMDR through the Francine Shapiro EMDR Institute. I understand that people are more than a diagnosis and that the ways we learn to cope often make sense in the context of what we have lived through—even when those same patterns are no longer helping us today.
My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard while also doing meaningful work toward change. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I tailor therapy to your needs, goals, strengths, and readiness.
I offer IN-PERSON APPOINTMENTS in Goodyear, Arizona, serving the West Valley, as well as virtual therapy throughout Arizona, Wisconsin, Colorado, Michigan, Florida, and New Jersey.
Hi! I'm a Master's level licensed psychotherapist with almost 40 years of experience. I'm invested in your best outcomes, your emotional growth and success through this process. I work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach, pulling in mindful awareness work for clarity and creative skill-set development. We'll gently explore your family of origin, your current sense of self and related topics. We'll build a therapeutic plan that fits for what you're looking for.
