Gregg Malone

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Gregg incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. His approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, developing healthier perspectives, and building practical skills to create meaningful change. Through a collaborative and supportive process, Gregg helps clients increase self-awareness, improve emotional regulation, and develop more effective coping strategies. He tailors CBT interventions to each client’s unique needs, goals, and personal experiences while emphasizing growth, resilience, and lasting behavioral change.

Sex Therapy

Gregg provides sex therapy in a respectful, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where individuals and couples can openly discuss concerns that are often difficult to address. As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, he has advanced specialized training in addressing sexual concerns through compassionate, client-centered care. Gregg works with clients experiencing challenges such as differences in sexual desire, sexual functioning concerns, intimacy challenges, compulsive sexual behaviors, pornography-related concerns, infidelity recovery, and sexual shame. He recognizes that sexual concerns often involve emotional, relational, psychological, and individual factors, and he takes a comprehensive approach to helping clients understand and address these challenges. Gregg is also the author of a booklet on Sensate Focus, a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals and couples reduce pressure, improve communication, increase body awareness, and strengthen emotional and physical intimacy. His goal is to help clients improve communication, deepen emotional and sexual connection, develop healthier patterns of sexual expression, and build relationships that are more fulfilling and meaningful. Whether working with individuals or couples, Gregg creates a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore sensitive topics and work toward lasting growth and connection.

Couples Counseling

Couples counseling helps partners improve communication, strengthen emotional connection, and navigate relationship challenges with greater understanding and confidence. Gregg's approach is grounded in the Gottman Method, an evidence-based model that helps couples build trust, manage conflict effectively, deepen friendship, and create lasting intimacy. In couples therapy, the relationship itself is the client. Gregg tailors each session to the unique dynamics of the relationship, helping couples identify unhealthy patterns and develop practical skills that foster lasting change. He has advanced training in Marriage and Family Counseling, holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from SMU–Dallas, and is Gottman Method–trained. Gregg works with couples facing challenges such as communication difficulties, recurring conflict, infidelity, sexual concerns, and pornography addiction. His approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical, combining evidence-based interventions with empathy and, when appropriate, humor to help couples reconnect, rebuild trust, and strengthen their relationship.

Gottman method

I love being a mental health therapist and am especially passionate about couples counseling using the Gottman Method. This evidence-based approach helps couples build stronger connections by improving communication, managing conflict, and maintaining fondness and admiration for each other. I work with couples facing challenges such as chronic conflict, infidelity, emotional distance, or difficulties around parenting, money, or sex. In sessions, I focus on patterns of interaction and help partners develop practical skills to strengthen their relationship. I also provide Gottman book recommendations and exercises to support growth outside of therapy, so positive change continues beyond our time together.

Motivational Interviewing

Gregg uses Motivational Interviewing with clients experiencing behavioral addictions, including substance use concerns and pornography compulsivity, to help them explore the impact of their behaviors and identify their personal reasons for change. Rather than focusing on confrontation or judgment, he helps clients examine patterns, recognize discrepancies between current behaviors and personal values, and strengthen their motivation for recovery. Through empathy, collaboration, and goal-focused conversations, Gregg supports clients in developing healthier coping strategies, increasing accountability, and building confidence in their ability to create lasting change.
