Great to meet you!

If anxiety, depression, or ADHD have been weighing on you, you do not have to carry it alone. I'm Dr. Gloria Tucker-Elijah, a PhD and Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I am here to listen, support, and help. Together we will find the evidence-based approach that fits your needs and goals, and build a plan that actually moves you forward.

My approach to therapy

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Solution Focus Brief Therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to confront those thoughts to change and improve your feelings.

What you can expect from me

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety or depression. During our initial sessions, we will focus on specific issues, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you meet your therapeutic goal. This may happen gradually in the first couple of months as we move forward to a more subsequent sustained improvement.
