A particular focus of Dr. Glick's work is understanding and addressing procrastination. She works to uncover its root causes and implement effective strategies to help you move forward.

Dr. Glick finds great joy in exploring these pivotal questions with clients, helping them identify areas for growth and change.

Dr. Glick’s extensive education includes an undergraduate degree from Haverford College and MA and PhD degrees in Clinical Psychology from Suffolk University. Her clinical training includes internships at Tewksbury State Hospital and postdoctoral work at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates and VA Boston National Center for PTSD.

Having previously worked at Beacon Therapy Group and the Brookline Center for Community, Dr. Glick now offers telehealth sessions at Brighter Life Therapy. She looks forward to connecting with those seeking to cultivate a "Brighter Life" and navigate their personal journeys toward well-being.


Message to clients

Therapy is often viewed as a way to feel better, but my true goal is to empower you to live better, leading to deeper fulfillment and emotional well-being.

Clients often describe me as compassionate, caring, and skilled at providing constructive challenges that promote growth. My approach combines psychological theories with an interactive, energetic style, helping you uncover and address unproductive thoughts, emotional patterns, and behaviors that prevent you from aligning with your values and achieving your goals.

With extensive training and experience, I support a diverse range of clients facing various concerns, including anxiety, depression, obsessions, compulsions, procrastination, relationship issues, communication barriers, identity development, self-esteem, and value clarification. My expertise is also reflected in my published work, underscoring my commitment to effective, empathetic care.

I invite you to start a conversation about how I can support you in your journey toward personal growth and well-being. Let’s work together to create a more fulfilling and balanced life.
