About Glenn
Glenn Jacob-Oviatt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps adults facing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and stress. He uses a straightforward, practical style and focuses on helping people manage symptoms and make changes that feel meaningful to them.
He spent five years working at an adult mental health inpatient facility. There he organized and led groups on anxiety reduction, DBT skills, anger management, mindfulness, communication, and creative self-expression through art and writing. That hands-on experience shaped his group work and skills-based approach.
In individual sessions he combines a person-centered stance with practical techniques. Glenn brings cognitive behavioral tools to identify and challenge unhelpful thinking. He also uses dialectical behavior therapy ideas to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills.
He has a strong interest in narrative work and writing, and often invites clients to reflect on the stories they tell about themselves. Motivational interviewing helps when people are unsure about change or need help finding motivation.
Glenn aims to walk alongside each person as they try new practices and notice what helps. He emphasizes simple, teachable skills, short experiments between sessions, and clearer ways of thinking about problems. His practice is based in Oregon and sessions are offered in English.
