About Gregory Kaufman

Gregory Kaufman brings a warm, supportive presence to his work in mental health, believing there is nearly always a way forward and a way to be present amid difficult experience. He entered the mental health field in 2001 and has been conducting therapy since 2011. Gregory draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, mindfulness practices, family systems work, and personality-focused approaches such as the Enneagram.

He often emphasizes the importance of attending to day-to-day experience as a source of insight, while also exploring family of origin patterns that shape long-standing beliefs and responses. Gregory approaches these patterns without labeling them simply good or bad - the focus is on what to do with what has been carried forward. His clinical work has most frequently involved substance abuse recovery, trauma, loss, and life transitions, and he values being a steady, nonjudgmental companion through those processes.

Gregory holds the LICSW credential, which stands for Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, and he aims to create a space where people feel safe and understood. He welcomes inquiries from those who think he might be a helpful fit on their journey.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to improve day-to-day functioning; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for people facing emotional volatility or relationship challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust, and it can be particularly useful for addressing relationship difficulties, attachment wounds, and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Gregory works collaboratively with clients to consider their needs, goals, and preferences and to adapt methods over time so that therapy feels useful and aligned with what the person hopes to achieve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact with a licensed professional, accommodate work or caregiving commitments, and access therapy from the convenience of one’s chosen location.
