Today we’d like to introduce you to Glendora Dvine. Them and their team share their story with us below:
Before COVID-19, Glendora provided face-to-face individual and family counseling services in her Henry County, GA location. Glendora’s fields of expertise span from professional counseling psychotherapy to clinical director and development of operations for the specified state of Georgia managed care programs (Intensive Family Intervention (IFI) and Core services). Glendora has consulted with numerous companies in the metro Atlanta area related to IFI and Core Medicaid community services. She currently participates with the Department of Family and Children Services State of Hope program where she is a member of the State of Hope Ecosystem. Glendora has hosted a Civic Dinner in her community as part of connecting with “State of Hope” community program where collaboration from nonprofits, philanthropies, government, and businesses closely builds local safety nets that will prevent conditions that contribute to disparities in education, threaten a family’s self-sufficiency and could lead to child abuse and neglect.
Glendora is an uplifting speaker who has been motivating people for over ten years with her straightforward and encouraging dialogue. Since December 2014, this dynamic speaker has been motivating and inspiring parents and staff in the Youth Intervention Program, Fulton County Sheriff’s Office Community Outreach program (interrupted by COVID-19). Glendora’s passion for others is insatiable, she is continually volunteering in the community as needed; she serves as a paid speaker for healthcare organizations, private businesses, and government agencies.
Glendora’s insight and humorous application of new ways of safeguarding your family with healthy living by empowering parents, employees, church groups, organizations, and companies.
Glendora hosted her talk show radio program in 2014 entitled “Something to Talk About”, in which she offered the community tips and coping skills in various areas of society to help them remain lifted as they journey through life. She now uses social media to spread knowledge on how to keep it moving without getting stuck in the mess of life.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
I became a small business owner because I wanted to control my money and time. I was getting my feelings and pride hurt working for others in the counseling field after graduating and becoming licensed as a professional counselor by working 50-plus hours to learn that the paychecks I was issued were not cashable due to NSFs. I started to think that the only way to serve the mental health population without feeling discouraged by other companies was to work for myself. Working for myself will prevent me from experiencing nonpayment for my services rendered or being encouraged to see clients just for billing purposes and not due to mental health issues.
I always had a passion for serving others, and going to school for counseling was ideal. When COVID-19 struck America, I saw that it was time to share my knowledge with fellow clinicians in business to help them avoid the heartache I suffered working for others in the field. That is why I created a coaching program for clinicians that teaches them how to build, scale and grow in private practice. I teach them a system that I implement in the business that keeps my visibility and improves my confidence and competence as a business owner.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?

Can you share something surprising about yourself?
I am a breast cancer survivor since 2013 and continue to thrive daily in understanding that life is short. It is easy not to feel beautiful once undergoing trauma surgery but having a great support system can remind us how beauty is way more than what is appearing on the outside.
