Gloria Mann, LPC-S
Gloria was born and raised in New York. She became interested in counseling when she first volunteered at an inner-city program in high school. Gloria earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at University of Rochester and after deciding she could no longer deal with snowy days, she moved to Austin to earn a Master of Education in Counselor Education from the University of Texas at Austin. As someone who has enjoyed helping others, counseling is the perfect fit for her. She desires to create a safe environment for each client to authentically be themselves and feel proud of how their journey has shaped them. Gloria has grown to love Austin and call it home, even on those hot Texas summer days. When not trying to wrangle her child, Gloria enjoys being in nature, finding fun places to travel, exploring different types of food, and spending time with friends and family.

What Happened to You?
by Bruce D. Perry and Oprah Winfrey
empowering us to thrive
As an Asian American female, I am passionate about how our identities shapes our own experience, and I strive to use these experiences as a way of empowering us to thrive. I am skilled at navigating between different cultures and desire to use this experience to create an open place of discovery when working with you.
truly be themselves
I focus on issues related to anxiety, depression, body image dissatisfaction and trauma. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults and provide individual, group and family therapy. I believe that everyone are unique and special! I aim to create a place where each person can truly be themselves, and I want to help families have an open line of communication with one another.
find hope and healing
I believe that each person is unique and therefore no treatment plan can be the same. I want you to feel comfortable so that you can find hope and healing in your circumstances and move towards wellness.
