Whitney Gliniecki, LMSW

NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS

Hello. I appreciate you taking the time to read about me and explore an opportunity for us to begin a therapeutic process together. First and foremost, I am a person-centered therapist. I believe in following your lead as you are the expert about your own life. I am hopeful to be a part of your journey in a supportive role. I provide a non-judgmental, welcoming and compassionate space to work on your concerns. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy for adolescents (DBT-A), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Motivational Interviewing. While these models are all wonderful, I believe the most important part of therapy is the relationship we build together based on trust and mutual respect.

I received my Bachelor of Social Work degree from Central Michigan University in 2009 and my Master of Social Work degree from Michigan State University in 2011. I have spent much of my career working with transition age youth and young adults in residential, shelters, and outpatient settings. I enjoy working with people experiencing life transitions, educational or vocational issues, LGBTQIA+ issues, neurodivergence issues, mood disorders, depression, and anxiety.

In my free time, I enjoy board and card games and spending time with my spouse and our two cats. I like listening to a wide variety of music, audiobooks and podcasts while working on improving my crochet skills. I would be honored to join with you on your path to better mental health.
