About Gregory
Gregory Kaufman is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) with 11 years of therapy experience. He centers his work on practical, usable tools that help people move forward from stress, addiction, trauma, and life changes. He speaks English and Spanish and practices from Massachusetts.
Gregory uses clear, short-term strategies alongside deeper exploration when needed. He draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and attachment-focused work.
How Gregory works
Sessions typically focus on skills you can try between meetings and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. Clients often bring concerns like anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, grief, and low self-esteem. He also addresses intimacy challenges, relationship and family issues, parenting strain, eating concerns, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Gregory has a strong background supporting substance use recovery and people coping with loss and transitions. He pays attention to family of origin and attachment patterns to see how past relationships shape current choices. At the same time, he emphasizes what is showing up in day-to-day life now and works on changes that make daily functioning easier.
The aim is practical progress alongside greater self-understanding. Gregory aims to create a nonjudgmental space that encourages honest conversation. He describes therapy as collaborative and goal-focused, helping people set manageable steps toward their priorities.
If his approach feels like a fit, the next step is a quick matching process to schedule an initial session.

Online support options
Evidence-informed approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take small committed steps even when feelings are hard. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and homework. It is often used for anxiety, mood issues, and managing everyday symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gregory will talk with each person about goals and preferences and choose methods that fit those needs. He aims to combine skill-building with exploration so clients learn tools and also understand the patterns behind their difficulties.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video works well for full conversations and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit a work break. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options help people maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into a busy life.
