More about Gregory

Hey! I'm here because I love working with people and being a support on someone else's path. One thing life has shown me is that there is always a way forward--and always a way to be here in the midst of whatever we are experiencing. In this world with all its conflict, we need each other--I want to be a part of that process. I got into the field of mental health in 2001 and have conducted therapy since 2011. There are many modalities I draw from including CBT, DBT, Narrative therapy, Mindfulness, Family Systems, and work around personality types- often using the Enneagram. On some level, I feel like we can learn a lot about what needs to change without looking so far back in our history- our day-to-day experience is showing us more than we tend to recognize. However, the more I do this work, the more I realize the importance at looking at family of origin to identify patterns, beliefs, and responses that we have carried all of our life. I believe none of it is automatically good or bad- it's what we do with it.

The areas where I have worked most extensively include substance abuse recovery, trauma, loss, and life transitions. I'm grateful that people have opened up to me about all types of traumas and experiences. The best feedback I ever receive from clients is when they tell me they feel safe with me and that they know I am never judging them. If you think I can helpful to you on your journey, I can't wait to hear from you. All the best.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
