About Gregory

Gregory Kaufman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Massachusetts who brings 11 years of clinical experience to supporting people through stress, addiction, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and life transitions. He approaches each person with a steady belief that there is always a way forward and that being present in the middle of difficult experience is part of healing. Gregory values human connection in a world of conflict and aims to be a thoughtful companion on a client's path rather than an outside judge.

He draws from a range of evidence-informed methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. He pays close attention to day-to-day experience as a source of insight, while also exploring family of origin patterns when they illuminate long-standing beliefs and responses. Gregory frames material from a nonjudgmental perspective - nothing is assumed to be simply good or bad, but instead useful information about what might be changed.

His work has included extensive experience with substance abuse recovery, trauma and loss, and major life transitions, alongside a broad practice supporting issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, LGBT matters, eating and intimacy-related challenges, parenting, and career stresses. Many clients report feeling safe and unjudged in his presence. Gregory provides services in English and Spanish and holds a Massachusetts license under MA LICSW 116040.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a values-oriented approach that helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then take steps that align with what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and early patterns of connection to understand how attachment experiences shape current bonds and emotional responses; it often helps with relationship struggles, intimacy issues, and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns, which can be helpful for depression, anxiety, and coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gregory works collaboratively with clients and with other licensed professionals when appropriate to identify which methods best fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts the work as those needs evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people juggling work, family, or mobility concerns. Sessions by video call or phone allow for scheduled conversations similar to in-person meetings, while live chat and text-based messaging provide additional options for shorter check-ins or ongoing support. These formats can make it easier to access regular care and to maintain continuity during life transitions.
