About Gregory

Gregory Meriwether is a licensed master social worker who brings decades of clinical experience to his practice. He focuses on clear, practical conversations that help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and depression. His tone is respectful and direct, and he aims to make each session feel useful from the start.

He adapts talks and plans to fit the person in front of him rather than applying one fixed method.

Background and approach

Sessions often center on identifying patterns, trying small changes, and tracking what helps. Gregory uses straightforward skills from cognitive behavioral approaches and emotion regulation strategies to reduce unhelpful thinking and manage strong feelings. Gregory also helps people with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, anger, sleep problems, and self-esteem struggles.

He has worked with matters related to attachment, abandonment, and forgiveness. He brings experience addressing multicultural concerns, veteran and armed forces issues, and trauma-related challenges. Over his long career in Michigan he has supported people dealing with process addictions, traumatic brain injury, somatic symptoms, and the aftermath of prejudice or discrimination.

He emphasizes practical coaching for coping with life changes and the fatigue that comes from caregiving roles. Conversations are tailored so the person’s goals shape the work. His approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Gregory aims to empower clients with skills they can use between sessions and to make steady progress toward clearer thinking and calmer behavior.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world actions. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and changing behaviors tied to addiction or avoidance.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It can be useful for managing strong emotions, anger, relationship conflicts, and patterns that keep repeating.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Adjustments are made along the way based on what is helpful.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging can support quick skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily routines.
