Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer thinking and small changes that make day-to-day life easier. Gregory uses a mix of approaches depending on the person and the issue. He often brings acceptance and commitment ideas, mindful skills and cognitive-behavioural techniques together.
Motivational interviewing and a client-centred stance are used when someone needs support to change behaviour or feel heard. He has 11 years of counselling experience. Gregory has worked across child protection, mental health, disability services, drug and alcohol services and employee assistance programs.
This range shapes his practical, down-to-earth style and ability to adapt to different situations. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Gregory works from Australia and does not take international clients.
He holds AASW as a credential and aims to tailor his work to each person’s needs.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then taking values-based action. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre and emphasises being heard and respected while they work through issues.Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. Gregory will discuss goals, preferences and what has worked or not worked for you in the past. Together you can try different techniques and adjust the plan until it fits the problem and your day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy or geographically spread people. Video calls let you work face to face without travel, phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth, live chat allows quick check-ins and text messaging supports short reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling into work breaks, caregiving schedules or other commitments while still getting consistent support.
