Gregory Kaufman , LICSW

Gregory Kaufman is a dedicated licensed clinician who enjoys supporting people as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions. He approaches therapy with a practical optimism - believing there is often a way forward even in the midst of difficult experience - and he values the mutual support that comes from therapeutic work. As a LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker), he combines training in evidence-based techniques with a focus on relationship and systems influences.

Kaufman draws on a range of modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), narrative approaches, mindfulness practices, and family systems work, and he often incorporates personality-informed tools such as the Enneagram. He has worked extensively in areas such as substance abuse recovery, trauma, grief and loss, and major life transitions, and he pays attention both to present-moment experience and to patterns stemming from family of origin.

He emphasizes a nonjudgmental, accepting stance and aims to create a space where people can explore what to keep, what to change, and how to move forward. He welcomes conversations with those who think his approach might be helpful on their journey.

Approaches and Access for Online Therapeutic Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build actions that align with those values, even while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores relationship patterns that developed in early life and how those patterns affect current intimacy, trust, and communication. This approach can be helpful for relationship difficulties, attachment concerns, and family-of-origin themes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping strategies for everyday challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Gregory Kaufman works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to determine which methods best fit each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors interventions based on what emerges in conversations and what the client finds most helpful.

Online therapy with Gregory includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and accessibility across different routines. These options allow people to receive consistent support from home, work, or while managing busy or changing lives.
