About Gregory

Gregory Ullstrom is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Wisconsin who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, and depression.

Background and approach

He approaches each person as the expert on their own life, building on existing strengths to address a range of concerns from grief and trauma to intimacy, parenting challenges, and career-related stress.

With three years of professional experience, he blends practical strategies and supportive collaboration to help clients move through life changes and persistent patterns that get in the way of daily functioning and wellbeing. Gregory draws from cognitive behavioral techniques alongside acceptance and mindfulness-based methods to help clients develop clearer thinking, healthier habits, and greater emotional flexibility.

He also uses client-centered and emotionally focused approaches to create a therapeutic environment where personal values and meaningful relationships can be explored. His practice attends to diverse issues including ADHD, compassion fatigue, bipolar concerns, and substance use, and includes attention to topics such as guilt, codependency, and end-of-life or hospice-related emotional needs.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Gregory uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to learn practical skills for reducing symptoms like anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another part of his work, inviting clients to clarify personal values and develop psychological flexibility through mindfulness and acceptance practices. A client-centered stance also informs sessions, offering empathetic listening and collaboration to shape goals and pacing.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Gregory works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs and preferences. He tailors interventions to the client’s goals and adjusts techniques over time so that therapy stays relevant and effective for the issues presented.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or mobility constraints, and they allow clients to try different ways of connecting to find what feels most helpful.
