About Gary
Gary Grant is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five decades of professional experience. He emphasizes Attachment-based therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive approaches to help people understand patterns in relationships and emotional life. He helps with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns.
He also supports people facing addictions, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, and self-esteem struggles. His background includes work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender clients and attention to multicultural issues tied to Native American and African heritage.
Background and approach
Gary draws on a long career that began in education and probation work and moved into mental health practice. He has experience delivering individual and group therapy, and has worked in residential settings with adolescents. That history shaped his practical focus on emotional regulation and resilience.
His training includes a Master of Arts in Education, Psychology, Guidance and Counseling, and additional graduate study in clinical psychology. He also completed coursework toward a Doctor of Psychology and learned hypnotherapy methods earlier in his career. These experiences feed into a flexible, strengths-focused style.
In sessions he blends Attachment-based, Client-Centered, and Cognitive Behavioral ideas with mindfulness and hypnotherapy when appropriate. The aim is to find simple, concrete steps that reduce distress and help people reconnect with what matters to them.

Online support
How attachment work and practical therapies translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current feelings and behaviors; online sessions can be used to notice those patterns, practice new ways of relating, and reduce repeating cycles. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and uses listening and reflection to help people feel heard and make their own choices; it can help with life changes, self-esteem, and finding clearer goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then shape sessions together. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods if something isn’t working or if different tools are needed over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can fit during a break or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to attend regularly and to try different formats as life changes.
