He brings 28 years of counseling experience to sessions and focuses on men's wellbeing along with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. Greg aims to help people find clearer direction and manageable tools for daily life.

He often draws on cognitive behavioral strategies and acceptance-focused ideas to reduce unhelpful patterns and increase meaningful action. He also integrates attachment perspectives to address relationship patterns that cause repeated pain.
Clients may work on issues such as abandonment, attachment wounds, communication or commitment struggles, and problems with trust and intimacy. He also addresses concerns like body image, codependency, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and fatherhood-related stresses. Sessions emphasize practical skills, clearer thinking, and small changes that add up over time.
Greg's background includes long experience running groups and working with addiction recovery and grief. He has a history in teaching and program leadership that shapes his educational style in session. His approach is collaborative - he listens first, then helps design steps that fit each person's life.

How his approaches translate to online work
Greg commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where someone wants clearer direction rather than just symptom relief. He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to identify patterns in how people relate to others and to build more satisfying connections and trust.Finding the right approach is part of the process. He collaborates with each person to choose or adapt methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration shapes whether sessions emphasize skill practice, emotion work, or problem-solving at any stage.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, enable shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so a session can fit into a lunch break or between commitments. Therapists in general adapt materials and exercises for remote sessions so people can practice skills in everyday life and measure small changes between meetings.
