About Gary
Rev. Gary Greene is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 18 years of experience based in Georgia. He lists a range of concerns he addresses, including stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting, and intimacy-related matters. He also notes additional focuses such as attachment issues, codependency, blended family concerns, and caregiver stress.
He earned a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Counseling from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and has provided community-based counseling since 1986. He became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2005 and is a doctoral candidate in Pastoral Counseling (ABD). His background includes work in community settings and both inpatient and outpatient hospital environments.
In sessions he uses straightforward, person-centered ways of working. He also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to look at patterns of thinking and behavior, and on narrative techniques to help people tell and reframe their stories. He says he values addressing losses and relationship crises as two of his primary interests.
Clients can expect direct conversation about current struggles and practical steps to try between meetings. He mentions working with parenting and family-role issues, self-esteem, grief, trauma, ADHD-related concerns, and anxiety. The emphasis is on identifying patterns that come from the family people grew up in and how those patterns show up now.
He indicates he incorporates his own values into counseling while honoring each person’s beliefs and goals. For international callers and English speakers he notes that sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It encourages the person to lead the conversation while the therapist responds with understanding. This approach helps with relationship and family role concerns by clarifying feelings and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and small tests to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from the stories they tell about their lives. It supports reexamining those stories so patterns from childhood or family roles can be seen differently. This can be useful for attachment issues, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, and then suggest which methods to emphasize. That decision is made together and can change over time based on how sessions go.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, have shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also allows practical exercises and written reflections to be shared between meetings to keep progress moving.
