About Gregory

Dr. Gregory Dillon is a licensed professional counselor with 16 years of experience who helps people question the assumptions that shape their lives. He invites clients to look closely at the stories they tell about themselves and others.

That first step often makes new choices feel possible. He frames counseling as a practical process. Sessions focus on examining perspectives, naming values, and trying new behaviors.

He offers clear, straightforward feedback and asks clients to practice changes between meetings.

Background and approach

Dr. Dillon draws on a range of approaches to match the person in front of him. He uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to build steady attention to the present.

These methods are blended to address concerns like addictions, trauma, anxiety, grief, and parenting strain. His background includes clinical counseling, higher education, and public service. That mix shapes a style that balances challenge with support.

He aims to reduce stigma and help people claim a life that fits their values. People come to him for help with relationship questions, life transitions, anger and stress, or issues tied to identity and culture. He also works with concerns such as codependency, substance and process addictions, fatherhood issues, and first responder stress.

He practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. To begin, visitors use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions based on therapist availability. The subscription for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Dr. Dillon commonly draws on acceptance and commitment work and cognitive behavioral methods to guide online sessions. Acceptance and commitment ideas help people clarify what matters to them and move toward those values even when emotions are intense. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building new behavior patterns to reduce anxiety, stress, or compulsive habits.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they match each person's needs.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Many people find that a consistent weekly slot combined with short between-session practices helps carry changes into daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
