Gregory Dams, LCP — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Gregory!

I specialize in anxiety, OCD, and depression, using evidence-based therapies like CBT to help adults and older adolescents achieve their goals. I provide warm, client-centered care that fosters a positive outlook on life.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing anxiety disorders, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive and related conditions, depression, and PTSD.

My approach

I use evidence-based treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Exposure and Response Prevention. These structured approaches have consistently shown remarkable effectiveness in improving well-being and functioning.

My communication style

My style is warm, direct, and caring. I create a safe and empathetic environment where you feel genuinely understood and supported. Working with me is characterized by trust and the knowledge that I'm dedicated to your well-being.

My goals for you

I use a structured and collaborative approach to goal setting. Together, we identify specific, achievable goals tailored to your needs. Evidence-based therapies guide you toward these objectives, ensuring a clear path to a more positive outlook on life.

Our first session

I create a welcoming and empathetic environment. I start by actively listening to your concerns and experiences, encouraging you to open up. Together, we explore your goals and what you hope to achieve. I share an overview of evidence-based treatment options, giving you autonomy to decide what aligns best with your needs.
