Therapy with Gregory
I work as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, specializing in my work with adolescents, children, couples and adults who are seeking both relief of symptoms, and greater purpose in life.
​
As a therapist working with children and adolescents, I utilize a child-centered, trauma-informed approach, prioritizing play, creativity and imagination in such a way that children are able to develop effective boundaries and coping mechanisms for life's challenges. Utilizing Sand Tray, art therapy, and games, I hold a safe container for children to explore themselves, understand their emotions, and become more equipped for success.
In my work with teens & adults, I will join collaboratively with you to assist you through your life's journey. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, work stress, trauma symptoms, anger, feeling misunderstood, existential concerns, communication challenges, or life transitions, I offer you my support, containment & perspective. I work from a humanistic-existential core, embodying CBT, gestalt, psychodynamic, transpersonal, archetypal & mindfulness-based frameworks. I believe the most-effective, trauma-informed care is centered around the unique needs of my client. My deepest goal is to hold space for you to discover how beautiful & rich the journey of deepening self-awareness can be.
As a neurodivergent person myself, I hold a particular specialization in working with clients who are on the autism spectrum, who feel misunderstood or unsupported in their life, or simply want to be heard and seen. I also am highly comfortable working with people who are working to integrate their darkness in healthy ways, whether that is finding a healthy release for rage or coping with dark or violent thoughts.
​
For those who are interested, I incorporate psychological astrology into the work, adding a new dimension to therapy through the deepened awareness of archetypal patterns within the self.
​
As of 2025, I am now trained to incorporate ecotherapy into my practice. If you often find yourself more grounded while spending time in nature, feel free to contact me for outdoor therapy sessions based in Sebastopol.
