About Gregory

He works with adults dealing with anger, relationship strain, addiction recovery, anxiety, depression, and parenting pressures. Sessions are presented in straightforward language focused on practical change rather than jargon.
Gregory draws on methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. He also uses EMDR for trauma-related work and the Gottman Method for relationship concerns when appropriate. Expect clear skills practice, problem solving, and planning between sessions.
His background includes work with people recovering from substance use who have co-occurring disorders, and experience supporting LGBTQ clients. He trained at California State University Dominguez Hills and completed a master’s in psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family/Professional Clinical Counseling at Brandman University. He also holds a county certification in CBT for late life depression.
In practical terms, Gregory helps people manage anger that shows up at work, at home, or inside relationships. He talks through triggers, communication tactics, and ways to lessen reactivity. The approach centers on learning skills, testing small changes, and adjusting plans as needed.
For someone who wants clear steps and tools, he offers concrete ways to reduce tension, repair interactions, and refocus energy toward personal goals.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Gregory commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to change feelings and results. DBT focuses on teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication skills that reduce reactivity.He may also use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma work when it fits a client’s needs. EMDR aims to ease the hold of painful memories so daily triggers have less impact. Choosing which approaches to use is collaborative; the therapist and client review goals and try methods that match the problem and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a busy life. Remote sessions can allow shorter check-ins, drop-in skill reviews, or full hour sessions that avoid commute time. The therapist will discuss how to shape sessions so they fit practical constraints and the work the client wants to do.
