About Gregory

Gregory Ullstrom is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with three years of clinical experience. He works with adults struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, depression, and anger. He also supports people facing grief, trauma, parenting strain, and life transitions.

Gregory approaches sessions with respect for the client's perspective. He treats the person as the expert on their life and builds on existing strengths. Sessions are direct and practical, focusing on what people can do differently between meetings.

He uses a mix of evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clear values and committed action when feelings are intense. Mindfulness practices are used to notice reactions in the moment and reduce reactivity.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and a client-centered stance shape how he talks about relationships and attachment. These approaches guide conversations about intimacy, communication, and repairing trust. Motivational Interviewing is used when people are dealing with addiction or major behavior change.

Sessions aim to teach skills for managing anger and everyday triggers. The focus is on practical tools for handling frustration at work, reducing snap reactions with loved ones, and addressing built-up resentment. Gregory emphasizes small, actionable steps people can try between sessions.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions

Gregory commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values even when strong emotions are present. ACT can be useful for anger that comes from stuck patterns or avoidance.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify thought patterns and behaviors that fuel stress and angry reactions. CBT offers practical tools for changing small actions that reduce escalation at home or work.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gregory will discuss which methods match the client's goals and preferences and adjust the plan as sessions progress. The choice of strategies is based on the person’s needs and what seems most helpful in practice.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy days, let people check in during a short break at work, or remove the need to travel. Some methods like CBT and mindfulness translate well to remote sessions because they focus on concrete skills, homework, and brief in‑session practice.
