About Wendy
Wendy Glass Givens is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, family strain, and self esteem concerns. She works from a compassionate stance and aims to create a calm, steady presence for people who feel overwhelmed by life changes or loss.
Wendy practices in California and brings seven years of counseling experience to each session. She blends emotional support with practical steps people can try between meetings. Conversations focus on identifying strengths, noticing unhelpful patterns, and developing doable strategies to feel more grounded.
Her work is informed by a Christian perspective that honors spiritual beliefs alongside emotional needs. That perspective is woven into sessions when clients want it, and it helps guide discussions about meaning, values, and hope. The emphasis is on listening first, then helping people choose next steps that fit their life.
In sessions she uses steady, clear guidance and invites clients to reflect on what matters most to them. Small changes and coping skills are introduced in ways that are easy to practice. Over time the aim is to build resilience and clearer decision making around relationships and self care.
People who want to start therapy complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. The overall tone of work is warm and direct, with attention to both emotional healing and practical problem solving.
