About Garry
He uses a down-to-earth style that focuses on listening and practical problem solving. Sessions are a place to talk honestly about what is hard right now and to try small changes that can make daily life easier. Garry encourages people to notice what works for them and to build on those strengths.
Garry draws on several approaches in his work, including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, the Gottman Method for relationship work, and mindfulness practices. He combines these tools to match each person’s needs rather than use one fixed method.

He supports people who want clearer communication, better emotion management, and stronger direction in life.

Approaches for online work and what they do
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most in their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest ways to combine methods that fit the situation. Clients and the therapist check in together to see what is helping and adjust the plan over time.
Confirm current online session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. It can also make some kinds of skill practice and weekly follow-up simpler to maintain alongside work and family responsibilities.
