About Chiya
Chiya Glenn is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and self-esteem concerns. She also focuses on issues such as chronic pain and illness, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and social anxiety.
Chiya frames therapy around the idea that each person knows their story best. She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice strengths they already have. Sessions are practical and focused on small changes that feel doable between meetings.
In sessions she talks through what led to painful feelings and how those feelings show up day to day. She helps people name patterns, experiment with new ways of responding, and practice skills that reduce overwhelm. For someone carrying guilt or shame, she attends to the thoughts that keep those feelings active and works on alternatives that lessen their hold.
Her approach is collaborative. She asks about goals and priorities and checks in about what feels helpful. Meetings aim to balance understanding the past with working on concrete steps for the present.
People who choose Chiya will find direct, practical conversations about real life. Her work is intended for adults dealing with the listed concerns. She conducts sessions in English and is based in New York.
Evidence-based approaches in online sessions
Chiya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps most in daily life. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches practical tools for managing anxiety and stress, such as breathing, grounding, and simple behavioral steps to reduce overwhelm. These tools are useful for symptoms that show up in day-to-day routines and in relationships.Another strand of her work centers on processing trauma and painful memories in measured steps. This involves naming what happened, tracking how it shows up now, and gradually testing different ways of responding so painful reactions lose some intensity. That method can help with grief, post-traumatic stress, and long-standing shame or guilt.
Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will ask about goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and how you prefer to work. Together you can try methods and adjust as needed so the approach fits your situation and priorities.

Licensed professionals can adapt session pacing and techniques to match the constraints of everyday life while focusing on practical steps that carry over between meetings.
