About Gale
Gale Green is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri who focuses on helping adults navigate major life stresses. She listens first and aims to create a calm space where people can name what is most troubling them. Gale draws on two decades of counseling experience and life experience to guide practical steps forward.
Gale helps people manage anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, anger, and intimacy-related issues.
How Gale works
Additional areas she addresses include family-of-origin problems, blended family issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and aging-related concerns. Her work emphasizes clear communication and honesty. Sessions center on what each person needs right now, not on fitting a label.
Gale uses a client-centered stance and blends methods as needed to match a person’s situation and goals. She draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness practices to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or unsure about change.
Trauma-focused techniques are used when past harm is affecting daily life. Gale brings 20 years of LPC practice in Missouri and experience working with diverse life stories. She supports adults 21 and older, and she accepts international clients.
Sessions are offered in English and available through several online formats.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Gale often draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness practices when working with people online. DBT focuses on teaching concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and improving relationships. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce stress and increase awareness of thoughts and feelings.She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. That approach involves asking open questions, reflecting back what is said, and supporting small steps toward goals. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - the therapist and client review problems, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit best together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well when visual cues and a longer session are helpful. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a straightforward check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow brief touchpoints, quick coping prompts, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life while keeping care consistent and focused on progress.
