About Greg
Greg Hilgert is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 23 years of experience. He focuses on anxiety and related concerns like stress, depression, grief, and relationship issues. He listens first, then helps people find steps that make sense for their life.
Greg uses a straightforward, person-focused style. Sessions center on the client's goals and practical strategies. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
Background and approach
He also uses trauma-focused methods when past events are getting in the way of daily life. People come to him for many reasons: sleep problems, low self-esteem, anger, addiction concerns, parenting strain, or the fallout from loss or betrayal. He also works with issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, codependency, and fatherhood concerns.
His work often includes problem solving, skills practice, and checking progress between meetings. Greg adapts the pace to each person. Some people want focused short-term work on a specific problem.
Others need more time to process trauma or rebuild relationships. He aims to match the approach to what the person wants to change and how they prefer to work. His practice offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules per the listed options. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How Greg’s approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy gives space for each person to lead the conversation while the therapist listens carefully and reflects back what matters most. This approach helps when someone wants support that follows their pace and priorities rather than a fixed agenda.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. In short, sessions break larger issues into manageable steps and practice new ways of responding to anxious thoughts or habits between meetings.
EMDR is a trauma-focused method that works with how distressing memories are stored and processed. When past events are interfering with daily life, this approach provides structured procedures to reduce the intensity of those memories and their impact.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Greg will discuss what you hope to change, try methods that match your goals, and adjust as work proceeds. The plan can blend short-term symptom relief with longer-term processing depending on needs and comfort.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day or to continue work between sessions. These options increase flexibility for scheduling and keep care practical for different lifestyles.
