About Gregory

Gregory Meriwether is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan. He draws on more than four decades of professional experience to help people cope with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief, and depression. He speaks plain language and focuses on practical steps parents and adults can use day to day.

He treats relationship and intimacy concerns, sleeping difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Parenting and family topics are part of his work when they arise.

Background and approach

He also addresses issues such as compassion fatigue and ADHD, plus a wide range of trauma-related and multicultural concerns. Gregory uses evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. He shapes conversations and plans to fit each person’s needs rather than offering one fixed approach.

Sessions aim to identify patterns, try small changes, and build useful coping tools. People who reach out can expect straightforward guidance and steady support. He emphasizes respect and sensitivity while working at a pace the client can handle.

He encourages practical skills alongside conversations about feelings and history. His practice includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the process and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Online approaches that focus on skills and stability

Gregory uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in his online work. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect moods and habits, and helps people try practical changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or problem behaviors. DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress when life feels overwhelming.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals, challenges, and what feels doable. Together they decide which strategies to try first and adapt the plan as progress is made.

Offering therapy online makes sessions more flexible and easier to fit into busy family lives. Options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats let people keep momentum between sessions, use tools in real time at home, and pick the way of communicating that works best for them.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
