Welcome! Meet Emily Glover, LLMSW

Location: Grand Rapids

Specialties: Grief, Trauma and PTSD, Family Conflict, Depression, Relationships, and Self-Esteem

Ages: 11+

My “ideal client” could be anyone who has found the courage to take the first step towards healing and has scheduled that first intake appointment, even if they are reluctant, have reservations, or aren’t sure about the whole “counseling thing.” The client may not know their goals for therapy or their needs precisely, which is okay. We will start wherever the client is and go forward together.

I am a limited license MSW clinician with experience providing therapeutic modalities such as Motivational Interviewing, Grief and Loss, life transitions, mediation, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Intergenerational Family Therapy,  Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Areas I often work with are grief, relationship issues, adjustment disorders, anxiety and depression, trauma,  communication and confidence, chronic conditions, and self acceptance. 

My attending and interviewing style are my “superpowers” and my clients can expect warmth, attentive engagement, and supportive and validating interactions. I strive to create and foster an affirming, inclusive, and warm atmosphere where my clients can feel at ease during our time together. 

Each person is an expert in their own life, but occasionally, we may need help seeing things from a different angle, someone who can listen unbiasedly, focus on you, and support you towards optimal well-being. I’d be honored to be that person for you. I am committed to building and sustaining a trusting and strong therapeutic alliance with my clients.

Rates & Insurance

This is my first time in therapy. What can I expect?

In therapy, you can expect a welcoming and supportive space where we’ll work together to explore your feelings, set personal goals, and develop coping strategies for challenges like anxiety, stress, grief, and more. I’ll tailor our approach using techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to meet your unique needs, empowering you to make positive changes at your own pace.

How do I get started with therapy?

The first step is to fill out the contact form with your information to the best of your ability. One of our intake specialists will then reach out to answer any questions you may have and schedule a brief phone consultation. During this call, we’ll ask you to share a little about yourself and discuss what you’d like to focus on in therapy!

Do you accept Insurance?

Unity Counseling offers a wide range of accepted insurances such as Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Optum, Priority Health, UMR, and United Healthcare. Along with accepting some Medicaid and Medicare! Unity Counseling also offers out of network, private pay avalbile on a sliding scale. If you don't see your insurance or have questions, please give us a call (616-439-1866) to learn more!

How often would we meet?

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to therapy. In the beginning, we typically recommend meeting on a weekly basis. This gives us a chance to get to know one another, and as our work together develops, we encourage personal assessments so we can create a schedule that suits your specific needs.
