About Gregory
Gregory Kaufman is an LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) with 11 years of clinical practice. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, relationship and family matters, and related issues such as grief, intimacy, and coping with life changes. He offers therapy in English and Spanish and practices from Massachusetts.
Gregory uses practical, down-to-earth methods that people can apply between sessions. He draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help with mood, self-regulation, and unhelpful thinking. He also uses acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas to address values, connection, and relational patterns.
He pays attention to how day-to-day experience points to what needs to change. At the same time he looks at family of origin patterns to see which beliefs and responses people carry forward. That mix can help people understand why they react the way they do and what to try differently now.
Gregory has worked extensively with substance abuse recovery, trauma, loss, and life transitions. He also helps with issues like ADHD, career stress, intimacy, eating struggles, and compassion fatigue. Sessions tend to focus on clear strategies, skills practice, and making choices that fit a person's values.
In sessions he aims to be nonjudgmental and steady. He often brings mindfulness and narrative approaches alongside structured therapies. If someone wants to explore how family patterns, coping skills, or values shape daily life, he offers that kind of practical attention.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions
Gregory uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps people manage anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills and short experiments to try between sessions.He also works with acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult feelings are present. ACT can help with chronic worry, avoidance, and making choices that align with what matters most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gregory will discuss the methods above and others he uses, and will help decide what fits the client’s goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and may shift as therapy progresses.

Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. Whether you prefer a longer weekly session or shorter, more frequent meetings can be discussed and arranged based on what works for everyday life.
