About Gary

Rev. Gary Greene focuses on helping people who are under stress or facing hard life changes. He listens first and aims to make sessions straightforward. Many people come with anxiety, grief, relationship strain, or struggles with addiction and codependency. He works to make room for what matters most to each person.

Gary Greene completed a Master degree in Marriage and Family Counseling at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. He became a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - in 2005 and has been providing community based counseling since 1986. He also notes progress toward a doctoral degree in Pastoral Counseling as all but dissertation. His practice draws on nearly two decades as a licensed clinician and prior community experience.

In sessions he uses approaches that fit the person, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered methods. He also draws on Narrative and Psychodynamic ideas when they help a person make sense of painful events. Treatment focuses on clear goals and steps that can be used outside the session.

People often seek him out for trauma, relationship crises, parenting strain, grief, depression, or substance-related concerns. He also supports those coping with abandonment, attachment struggles, caregiver stress, and issues around intimacy. The aim is practical change and steadier day-to-day coping.

Gary says his counseling will reflect his values while honoring each person’s beliefs and goals. He encourages honest conversation about what the client wants to accomplish and adjusts the approach as needs evolve.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies personal goals, which can be useful for stress, relationship strain, or self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Narrative Therapy helps people tell their story differently, separating them from painful events and opening space for new meanings in life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then suggest approaches that fit. That choice is collaborative and can change over time as progress and needs evolve.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also gives flexibility for people who live far from a clinician or who need to balance appointments with work or caregiving. Licensed professionals adapt techniques like CBT and client-centered listening to work well in remote sessions, and the focus remains on practical steps and regular progress reviews.
