About Gloria

Gloria Frush is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with over two decades of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate depression, bipolar mood concerns, addictions, self-esteem, and life transitions. Gloria works to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters to them and try new ways of coping.

She uses a strengths-based approach that begins by identifying what already works in a person’s life. From there she and the client build on those strengths to make gradual, practical changes. Wellness and recovery principles guide the process so progress can feel steady and sustainable.

Sessions tend to emphasize clear goals and practical steps. Gloria helps clients name small changes, test them out, and adjust as needed. Conversations cover feelings, daily routines, relationships, and strategies for managing mood and motivation.

Her work draws on 26 years of experience in mental health settings. That background includes supporting people through substance concerns, workplace stress, body image struggles, caregiving strain, and social anxiety. These experiences inform how she tailors sessions to each person’s needs.

Gloria offers therapy in English and practices in California. She asks prospective clients to use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

How Gloria’s Approaches Work in Online Therapy

Gloria emphasizes evidence-based techniques that focus on strengths and recovery. One approach identifies and builds on a person’s existing abilities and coping habits, helping them apply those strengths to mood and motivation problems. Another approach centers on wellness and recovery principles, teaching practical routines and small steps that support steady improvement in daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, talk about what has worked or not worked before, and try methods together. Adjustments are made based on what feels helpful and doable for the individual.

If you plan to pursue online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people continue care while managing work, caregiving, or other responsibilities. Licensed professionals tailor the pace and tools to match each person’s needs and daily routine.
