I enjoy working with university students and men struggling with balancing being dads and partners. I enjoy helping anyone willing to take a few moments to try an experiment with their thoughts and behavior, or try something new. I am passionate about helping people who worry about the future. I like helping people who want to make a change in their lives. If you want to feel better about anxiety, depression, or any other mental health issue, I will work with you to start a journey designed for you, to help identify how you can have the life you find to be worth living.
I provide two types of counseling, blended to create therapeutic conversations with Greg. I offer Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside Solution-Focused Therapy. Essentially, I want to work with you to figure out how we can both navigate a path towards the life you want to live, managing symptoms in a way that does not get in the way of what you want
I look forward to meeting and working with you to help guide you through the concerns you have. Whether you experience symptoms of sadness, worry, or difficulty in relationships, I am eager to meet and partner with you on your healing journey. I will do my best to respond as soon as possible so we can connect and begin our work together.

I approach counseling from a blended approach of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with Solution Focused techniques. ACT focuses on helping clients grow in their ability to approach problems from different perspectives. I prioritize helping clients walk away from their experience in counseling as a positive, additive experience in their life.
