About Gregory
Dr. Gregory Dillon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with 16 years of clinical and leadership experience. He works with adults on issues such as addictions, trauma and abuse, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, grief, and parenting challenges. He also addresses matters like self-esteem, anger, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
Dr. Dillon encourages people to question the assumptions and labels that shape how they see themselves and others. In sessions he focuses on reflection, accountability, and clear goals rather than quick fixes. Conversations often look at values and choices to help people move toward lives that feel more authentic.
He draws on several evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered methods, existential ideas, and mindfulness practices. Those methods are used practically - for example, noticing unhelpful thoughts, clarifying what matters most, and practicing small behavioral shifts.
Clients can expect straightforward discussion about patterns that keep problems repeating. He combines counseling, teaching, and advocacy experience to help people gain clarity and build steady habits. Dr. Dillon pays attention to how social pressures, discrimination, and cultural background affect mental health.
His work includes supporting people with complex or overlapping concerns such as co-morbidity, codependency, and process addictions. He also helps with life-purpose questions, fatherhood issues, money stress, and midlife shifts. Sessions are offered in English in Texas.
How his approaches are used in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small actions guided by personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and decisions about life direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviors by teaching practical skills and tests for change.
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and supporting the client's own problem solving. That approach is useful when someone needs space to make sense of identity, relationship, or parenting concerns.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the process. He will work together with each person to match methods to goals, needs, and personal preferences rather than insisting on one way of working.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Different approaches can be adapted to remote sessions so skills practice, values work, and thought records still get done without requiring the same setup as in-person meetings.
