About Gregory

Gregory Kelley is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on 20 years of experience to support people facing family stress, trauma, and anger. He meets people where they are and helps them take practical steps toward healthier relationships and steadier emotions. He views each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on.

Sessions focus on clear goals and usable skills rather than jargon.

Background and approach

Gregory aims to make the work feel straightforward and manageable. His approach pulls from attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns in close relationships. He also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address painful thoughts and reactions.

Those methods are used to reduce reactivity and create more workable routines in daily life. Gregory has two decades of clinical experience in Massachusetts settings that dealt with family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, and parenting stress. He uses that experience to offer tools people can try between sessions.

The focus is on steady progress and realistic steps. In sessions he listens, reflects, and offers concrete strategies for communication, emotional regulation, and problem solving. He encourages small experiments clients can do at home to test new ways of relating.

The overall aim is to help people feel more capable managing hard situations.

Online support

Attachment work and skills online

Attachment-based work helps people see how early relationship patterns shape present reactions and closeness. It focuses on how people connect, how they respond to stress in relationships, and ways to try new interaction patterns that feel safer and more predictable.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while taking steps aligned with personal values. It is useful for reducing avoidance and getting clearer about what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together and helps people test and change unhelpful thinking that fuels anger or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Over time the plan can be adjusted based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Messaging and live chat are useful for quick updates, coping ideas between sessions, or when written check-ins feel easier to manage.
