About Gloria
Gloria Rodriguez Moreira is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with nine years of clinical experience. She offers therapy in English and Spanish and focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and coping with life changes.
Gloria describes the client as the expert of their own story. She works in a straightforward, respectful way that helps people identify what is getting in the way and what they already do well. Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than jargon, with room to talk through real moments of frustration and conflict.
Her background includes work across relationship and cultural concerns. She supports people dealing with blended family issues, fatherhood questions, immigration stress, and multicultural challenges. Gloria also addresses codependency, social anxiety, isolation, and questions about life purpose and midlife change.
Her ways of working draw from acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centered conversations, cognitive behavioral tools, and existential reflection. That means she may focus on noticing unhelpful patterns, testing small behavioral changes, and clarifying what matters most to the person.
Gloria encourages practical steps between sessions. She helps people experiment with new responses to anger and frustration, improve communication, and manage overwhelming thoughts. To begin, she asks prospective clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can see if the approach fits.
How sessions work
How Gloria brings ACT and CBT online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and noticing thoughts so they have less control over behavior. It can help when anger or anxiety keeps someone stuck in reactive patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for reducing repeated angry responses and testing new ways of reacting.Finding the best approach is collaborative. Gloria will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as people learn what works for them.
Session formats are not specified in the therapist biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and remove travel time. They also allow people to work from a place that reduces interruptions, choose video or phone when that suits them better, and practice skills in the settings where anger often appears.
