More about Gregory
- 12 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I am a psychotherapist licensed in Colorado and life coach with plenty of experience. I have 2 masters degrees in the areas of clinical counseling and school counseling along with extensive additional trainings and education. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, marital problems, trauma (both physical and emotional), grief and loss, life changing events like retirement or a new illness. Most importantly, I love what I do. I thrive on building relationships with clients and I sincerely desire for them to reach their therapy goals.
My approach is simple: 1) Develop a team approach, 2) achieve all therapy goals as soon as possible, 3) make certain all accomplishments are permanent. My approach includes solution- focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, emdr, and emotion-focused therapy.
What makes me different from other therapists is combining therapy with life coaching, it’s more of a “Less talk. More action." approach. We want results: healing, coping methods, a plan of action, or change. It can be a lot of work, but believe it or not, you won’t regret it and you might even enjoy the journey.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Gregory is amazing he listens and helps me with all of my problems he understands me very well and responds quickly
Greg listens and works diligently on being inclusive, working with my style and needs. He always has tools or things I can apply timely to work through things. I appreciate his time and help!
I was skeptical in joining BetterHelp. Soon, however, I discovered that Greg Sims is the perfect fit for me. As a healthcare professional myself, I. eschew those therapists who feel that a non-emotive face... some would say stern... is the sine qua non of a professional therapy, a significantly outdated concept.. Greg is just the opposite and his feedback, both verbal and not, is right on target. I am a huge fan and advocate of Better Help.
I am grateful that he sees what makes me tick. He has supported me and gave me the tools to find out what I could not see on my own. I have done a lot of work in a short time, and Gregory listens to me and helps me move over every bump I think is a mountain. I look forward to our sessions to find out what I am missing and can do to keep working and keep moving forward. Thank you Gregory for everything!
Dr. Sims listens to understand, not to reply. He is very knowledgeable in many areas, which makes him a great Dr. for many different types of issues.
Greg is awesome! He listens, he’s on time, he has good suggestions etc. I enjoy working with him and I came back to him after experimenting with a few other therapists.
My therapist is very kind and truly cares about my well-being. He is a great communicator and I feel he truly listens to each word I say.
Greg has been an excellent therapist in a very hard time in my life. He challenges me in ways I need while at the same time allowing me to really observe my own patterns that have kept me stuck. He's been a life saver!
There is a great and heightened debate of late about the value of "talk therapy". Where there is concurrence is that to be successful, there must be a great relationship between client and therapist. With Greg, that's easy to accomplish. I am truly blessed to be working with him.
Gregory Sims has a lot of experience. He gives insight that help, support, encourage, and self care techniques. I am grateful he understands and listens.
Greg is always there for me - even when I don’t reply timely he follows up again and again to encourage me in my growth and self help! Greg truly cares about me !!
Gregory, seems very sincere and I so appreciate that quality. I have only had 2 sessions with him. Yet, I do feel safe with him. I have been through some tough relationship problems
I have gained so much from my sessions with Greg. He listens to every word and gives me many “tools” to use to help me process and become mentally stronger.
From the first meeting Gregory Sims seems like a very smart and genuine person, I have faith that he will be able to help me a lot with everything I’m working on
Greg has been such an important part of my life over the last few months. I'm not sure how I could've gotten through some of the struggles I've been dealing with had it not been for him. He's kind, understanding, encouraging, and incredibly supportive. It took a little work to find the right therapist when I first signed up for Betterhelp, but once I connected with Greg, I knew I had made the right choice.
I appreciate that he is great at leading conversations. It doesn't feel awkward talking to him like it can with other professionals. It also felt like he did a great job at listening to me.
