Gregory Ullstrom, LPC

Gregory Ullstrom is a licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, and depression. He encourages people to notice their own strengths and to use those strengths to move through hard moments. He speaks plainly and tries to make the first steps feel manageable for someone nervous about starting therapy.

He sees therapy as a collaborative effort. He listens first, then helps people set practical goals informed by their values. His work often includes mindfulness exercises to reduce overwhelm and cognitive tools to shift unhelpful thinking patterns.

Gregory uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people accept difficult feelings while taking steps that matter to them. He also draws on client-centered listening to create space for people to tell their story at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used when someone wants concrete skills for mood or anxiety management.

People bring many life issues to his practice. He has supported clients facing grief, trauma and abuse, caregiving and hospice concerns, chronic health challenges, gender and sexual identity questions, career stress, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. He also works with concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood issues, and substance use challenges.

Gregory has three years of professional experience and holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor. He practices in Wisconsin and conducts sessions in English. If someone is unsure about whether his style fits, he encourages trying an initial session and seeing how it feels.

How his approaches shape online therapy options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting those experiences stop meaningful action. It can be useful for anxiety, chronic health challenges, and coping with life transitions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people can explore concerns at their own pace and find their own answers.

Finding the best approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative attitude means sessions can shift between skills practice, values work, and open conversation as needed.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions may save commuting time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or remove the need to travel for an appointment. These practical benefits help many people keep momentum while working through stress, grief, or chronic health concerns.
