Gregg is a seasoned LCSW, CSAC and Board-Certified Diplomat with over 30 years of clinical practice experience as an Army Behavioral Health Officer and VA Mental Healthcare Provider.

I specialize in addictions and recovery services, child and family therapy, military adjustment and transition services, and persons experiencing complex trauma.

"I am adept with teens, young adults and veterans facing career transitions and the pressures of early adulthood."

I provide a safe, client-centered and nonjudgmental space where you can unpack stressful and difficult experiences and work toward desired goals and outcomes.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, blending evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. Treatment plans address the specific needs and objectives of clients, ensuring they receive individualized care.

In addition to individual therapy, I also lead group therapy sessions that foster a sense of community and mutual support among participants. These group sessions cover a range of topics, from coping strategies for PTSD to effective communication skills within families. By providing a collaborative environment, clients can share their experiences and learn from one another, promoting collective healing and growth.

Moreover, I am committed to continuous professional development and stay updated with the latest research and advancements in mental health care. This dedication ensures that clients receive the most effective and innovative treatments available. My goal is to empower individuals to achieve resilience and well-being, equipping them with the tools necessary for a fulfilling and balanced life.

Gregg is a retired Military and Veteran Health Care provider with extensive experience optimizing veteran care.

I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on creating a space where you can explore your experiences without judgment.

I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences. I recognize that our past experiences, relationships, identities, and environments can shape how we see ourselves and move through the world.

My therapeutic style balances warmth and support with thoughtful challenge. Rather than simply helping you manage symptoms, we will work together to understand the patterns beneath them, strengthen coping skills, and address experiences that may be keeping you from moving forward.

I integrate evidence-based and trauma-focused approaches, including EMDR, while tailoring treatment to your individual needs, goals, and readiness. You set the pace, and we work collaboratively toward meaningful and sustainable change.

Whether you're beginning therapy for the first time, returning after time away, or ready to work more deeply on longstanding concerns, my goal is to provide a supportive environment where you can heal, reconnect with yourself, and create a life that feels more aligned with who you are becoming..

Great to meet you!

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, awkward, or like something you’ve been putting off for way too long—and however you’re showing up, you’re allowed to come in exactly as you are.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (practicing psychotherapy since 2022 with prior experience in HR and Coaching) who focuses on creating a space where you don’t have to filter yourself or “get it right.” If your thoughts feel all over the place, if you don’t know where to start, or if part of you is unsure this will even help—that’s okay. We’ll figure it out together.

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, occupational stress, identity questions, relationship matters (kink and polyamory friendly), and feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t working anymore.

I also have experience working with more complex emotional and personality-related concerns, including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD). A lot of my clients are used to holding it all together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, reactive, or exhausted on the inside—and are ready for something to actually shift.

My style is supportive but real. I’m here to listen, but also to help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface and start making changes that feel meaningful—not just temporary — via skills that go beyond breathwork.

I hold a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing a second Master’s in Applied Psychology, which reflects my commitment to continuing to grow and deepen the way I support my clients.

Outside of therapy, I’m into houseplants, video games, and spending time with my dogs—which mostly just means I understand the need for both structure and an escape sometimes.

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


I am deeply committed to helping individuals discover meaning and purpose in their lives. With more than four decades of experience as a counselor, I specialize in guiding clients through recovery from addictions, anxiety disorders, and PTSD.

As an Associate Professor in the Online Department of Community Care and Counseling within the School of Behavioral Sciences at Liberty University, I facilitate courses designed to help students and clients rediscover their zest for life and cultivate lasting emotional well-being.

In my private practice, I work extensively with couples, equipping them with practical tools and proven techniques to restore joy, strengthen relational intimacy, and build fulfilling, resilient relationships.

I live in Lynchburg, Virginia, where I remain actively engaged in my community. My areas of specialization include trauma and complex trauma, anxiety, depression, child abuse recovery, and relational intimacy. I am also the author of Joy on the Same Page (2023), which outlines my Relational Intimacy approach.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Virginia

Searching for therapists in Virginia starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. Virginia has a wide mix of therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas, so available options can vary by location. You may want support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Virginia therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, experience, and what sessions may look like.

Practical fit matters, too. Whether you are looking for therapy in Virginia Beach, Richmond, Northern Virginia, or a smaller community, consider whether in-person or virtual care works better for your schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether they are accepting new patients. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and scheduling options in one place.

The cost of mental health care in Virginia varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from appointments that fit your schedule. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans. You can browse therapists in Virginia, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you are ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
