About Gregory

Gregory Ullstrom is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin who focuses on men’s wellbeing alongside a broad set of concerns. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions. Gregory frames the first contact as a small but important step and acknowledges the courage it takes to start therapy.

He works from a collaborative, respectful stance and treats each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions aim to identify strengths and practical steps that feel doable between meetings. Gregory uses plain language and a steady approach to make conversations feel straightforward and useful.

His work draws on several evidence-informed methods, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, emotionally-focused approaches, and client-centered listening. These tools get adapted to the person and the problem rather than following a rigid script.

Clients can expect focus on concrete coping skills and values-based goals when appropriate. He also attends to patterns that show up in relationships, identity, and daily routines. Gregory’s style balances listening with gentle guidance toward small changes.

With three years of professional experience in Wisconsin, he brings practical support for issues like ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, and grief. People often come for help sorting priorities, managing intense feelings, or making a plan after a big life change.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small committed actions even when feelings are hard. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and uses reflective listening to build self-understanding and confidence.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Gregory will discuss what feels most helpful based on your goals and preferences. That choice can shift as you meet, with techniques and pacing adjusted to what actually helps you make progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in when time is limited, or avoid travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for consistent momentum between appointments and for working on skills in everyday contexts.
