He also works with issues such as compassion fatigue, addictions, grief, and intimacy-related struggles.
Background and approach
He offers help for sleep problems, career transitions, and life changes that feel overwhelming. His practice includes attention to ADHD and related concerns like impulsivity and difficulty concentrating. He also supports people facing family-of-origin issues, communication problems, and challenges tied to adoption or foster care.
Aging and geriatric issues are also within his focus. Clients can expect conversations that are direct and compassionate. He aims to tailor sessions to individual needs rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.
Sessions can include practical strategies, coping skills, and step-by-step plans to test between meetings. Dr. Green practices in California and holds the credential Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW.
He provides services in English and does not accept international clients. To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Dr. Green uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear strategies and measurable steps. One approach emphasizes practical coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and activity planning to reduce overwhelming feelings. Another approach centers on processing trauma and difficult memories carefully, helping people make sense of past experiences and reduce their impact on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on symptoms, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try strategies, review how they work, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice-only check-in is preferred. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework sharing, or when someone needs a quick way to stay connected between meetings.
