Background and approach
That background means he is used to short-term and open-ended work. Greg uses an integrative style. He adapts sessions to what a person needs in the moment rather than following a single method.
Sessions often begin with listening and building trust, then move to practical tools for coping and clearer ways of thinking. Therapy may include person-centred elements to create a respectful space, cognitive and behavioural techniques to change unhelpful patterns, and attachment-informed ideas to understand relationship patterns. He aims to combine longer-term reflection with hands-on skills for everyday life.
People come to Greg to talk through specific problems or to work on deeper patterns. He focuses on helping clients notice what is holding them back, test small changes, and build steadier ways of coping and relating.
Approaches you can use online and what they involve
Greg commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas alongside client-centred listening. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that matter to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions.Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It can help people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and try different ways of relating. Client-centred ways of working create a non-judgemental, empathic space where someone can feel heard and begin to make sense of their experience.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Greg will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adjust the approach as therapy progresses. He aims to strike a balance between exploring deeper patterns and giving practical strategies you can use between sessions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face when that helps, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can fit short check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family and other commitments while still accessing regular therapeutic input.
