About Gregory

Gregory Ullstrom is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin. He helps people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and relationship issues. He emphasizes the client as the expert in their own life and treats each person with respect and practical support.

Gregory uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations. He listens for strengths first and helps build small, usable changes. Sessions aim to make day-to-day life feel more manageable, whether someone is dealing with grief, parenting challenges, career stress, or health-related worries.

Background and approach

He draws on several therapy styles to match what a person needs. That can include teaching coping skills from cognitive behavioral therapy, increasing emotional connection through emotionally-focused methods, and using mindfulness practices to steady attention. He mixes ideas to fit real situations rather than following a single script.

Gregory has three years of professional experience and holds the LPC credential. He works with issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and grief, plus other life stressors. Sessions are practical and paced to each person's comfort.

He encourages people who are nervous about starting to take the first step. The initial work focuses on what matters most to the client and on building small, sustainable changes that fit daily life.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It supports moving forward even when difficult feelings remain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety or change habits. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and working at the client’s pace to build trust and confidence.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on what helps.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. These formats make it easier to meet from home, balance appointments with family or work, and use shorter check-ins when that is helpful. The aim is practical access and flexibility so therapy can fit into everyday 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.
