About Gregory

Gregory Sims is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 12 years of clinical experience. He combines counseling and coaching to help people move from feeling stuck to making practical changes.

Background and approach

He values a team approach and works with clients toward goals they can actually use in daily life. He trained in clinical counseling and school counseling and has continued education in several therapeutic methods.

That background shows up in sessions as a mix of skill building and focused conversation. Sessions often move quickly from understanding a problem to trying specific steps that help.

Gregory helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the effects of trauma. He also supports those dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, body image concerns, chronic illness, and changes like retirement or loss.

He lists ADHD, compassion fatigue, and eating concerns among his focus areas as well. In the room he blends Client-Centered work with cognitive and emotion-focused techniques.

He also uses Attachment-Based ideas and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools when they fit a person’s goals. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is part of his skill set for trauma-related work.

Gregory’s style leans toward action. He often pairs traditional therapy with coaching techniques so clients leave with concrete plans.

That approach aims to produce steady progress and lasting change. Sessions are offered in English and Gregory accepts international clients.

He provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging through an online subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How therapy approaches translate online

Gregory uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. This approach helps people understand connection patterns and improve trust and communication in their close relationships.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers sessions on the person's own goals and pace. In practice that means letting the client lead when needed while offering empathy and practical feedback to move things forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gregory treats the choice of method as a collaborative decision made together based on what a client hopes to change and how they prefer to work. He adjusts techniques as progress and needs evolve.

Online therapy lets sessions fit into busy lives. Video calls provide face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be used when video is not possible or bandwidth is low; live chat and text-based messaging offer short check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum, practice new skills in real time, and check in after trying strategies between sessions.
