Report
I worked with Gregg over a period of 7 years and can confidently say that he is a truly gifted Counselor. I started working with him when I was at rock bottom and his support helped me heal and evolve beyond the limitations my traumas were imposing. As I grew and changed, Gregg intuitively knew how to continue reaching me at whatever space I was at within myself at that time.
Aaanndd he knows how to make the work fun, if you're open to it. I trust him, and highly recommend working with him!
