About Greg

Greg Walburn is a licensed mental health practitioner (LMHP) in Nebraska with over three decades of experience. He helps people facing relationship strain, family tensions, parenting challenges, depression, and major life transitions. Greg approaches the work with plain talk and steady support, encouraging personal responsibility while recognizing each person brings strengths to the work.

He views clients as the experts in their own lives and focuses on practical steps that lead to clearer communication and better day-to-day functioning.

Background and approach

Sessions often involve looking at patterns that keep problems repeating and trying small, doable changes. Greg balances logic and reflection to help people notice their role in relationships and make different choices. His training includes several evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy, along with existential and Jungian perspectives and solution-focused techniques.

These tools are used to address mood, parenting dynamics, commitment concerns, and fallout from separation or infidelity. He also has experience with aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, hoarding, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and issues common to first responders. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled by following the site's matching and booking steps.

Greg aims to create a straightforward, respectful space where people can talk through hard topics and take practical steps forward.

How Greg’s Methods Translate to Online Therapy

Greg often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different actions to change moods and reactions. It is well suited for depression, stress, and practical problems in daily life.

He also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and shift emotional patterns in close relationships. This approach focuses on identifying emotions that drive conflict and building new ways of connecting and responding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Greg discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods so they fit the situation. He treats the choice of techniques as a collaborative decision rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These formats allow ongoing check-ins, homework discussion, and crisis-focused contact when needed. The variety of formats supports flexible work toward clearer communication, better parenting routines, and improved coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
