About me

I agreed to "love, honor and cherish" my spouse. In the dramas of life, somehow that gets lost and marriages have some tough times, ending in divorce statistically in
a little over 50% of the time. I enjoy working with couples. I am able to stay neutral and avoid taking sides. I am interactive in the sessions, will challenge harmful behaviors and offer better ways to interact and resolve conflict. I utilize psycho-educational information and homework to facilitate positive change. When I can get the couple to let go of their pride, find humility and look in the mirror instead of a magnifying glass, they sense more control and good things happen. Often they walk away from therapy and live their lives "passionately ever after".

Gary was great and we will be using him again, the pricing is a little much for us at the moment however.

I’ve had therapy in the past. Usually consisting of rehashing and focusing on the past which doesn’t necessarily mean healing. But with Gary, there’s room to talk about the past but focus is more on strategies to create new habits and coping skills. If you are willing to put in the work, Gary is a great guide!

We have used Regain 3 times in the last 3 years. Gary is the first time that we have felt truly connected with our sessions. He is unbiased, tells you like it is, and readily available. I believe his excercises and advice are practical and helpful.

My husband and I have spoke with several counselors and Gary is by far our top pick. He is very thorough, gives adequate guidance, and I recommend him 10/10.

Written on Aug 21, 2020 after therapy with Gary for 3 weeks on issues concerning relationship

Gary does a great job intentionally and thoughtfully listening. He hears what your concerns are and helps you to look inward to find a solution, as opposed to dwelling on the things around you that you are unable to control.

Very good counseling
