About Gregory
Dr. Gregory Dillon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with 16 years of clinical and leadership experience. He helps people work through trauma, addictions, relationship strain, anxiety, grief, and life changes. He also addresses concerns related to parenting, anger, self-esteem, and work-related compassion fatigue.
He frames counseling as a process of examining the stories and assumptions that shape behavior. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of responding. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related approaches to make that process practical and concrete.
Clients can expect a direct, reflective style that balances personal values with clear behavioral steps. Dr. Dillon uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness methods alongside client-centered and existential ideas to help people weigh choices and take action. Conversations often move from understanding patterns to planning specific experiments to try between sessions.
He has worked in higher education, public service, and clinical settings, which informs a straightforward approach to common life problems. This background also shapes his interest in first responder issues, fatherhood, men's midlife concerns, and addiction-related patterns.
Dr. Dillon asks people to consider how stigma and cultural messages affect decisions and relationships. He supports efforts to reduce shame around struggles such as process addiction, substance use, and codependency. Practical steps, tracking progress, and clarifying values are regular parts of his work.
To begin, he recommends using the site's matching tool and scheduling a first session after completing a short questionnaire. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How his approaches translate to online work
Dr. Dillon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps. ACT emphasizes clarifying values and learning to accept difficult feelings while still taking actions that matter.He also draws on client-centered and mindfulness methods to keep sessions grounded in the client's priorities and present-moment noticing. Together these methods aim to help people move from understanding to doing, whether the concern is addiction patterns, anxiety, or life transitions. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - he works with clients to identify goals and then tries methods that fit those goals and preferences.
