Jeffrey J. Gregson, CMHC

Over the past several years we've been to several different therapists to try to help our son overcome his anxiety, but we didn't seem to be getting anywhere. We found out about Jeff and decided to give him a try and we couldn't be happier. Jeff has been very helpful in giving our son concrete ideas and tools to help him better deal with, and understand his anxiety. Jeff has a great sense of humor, which our son loves, and he gives good analogy's and stories to help understand the anxiety and what you need to do to overcome it. Jeff uses exposure therapy to help his patients overcome their anxiety and his assistant, Kennedy, helps him with the exposure therapy by meeting with patients, outside his office, (in live settings), where she and the patient come up with a plan and do the exposure therapy. My son was really nervous to do this, but Kennedy made him feel very comfortable; she is encouraging and supportive, and pushes (encourages) just the right amount. She's very positive and knowledgeable and gives gives helpful tips and insight as to how to overcome your anxiety. Both Jeff and Kennedy are making a great difference in our son's journey to overcome his anxiety!

Jeff has been a true blessing for our family. After a year of many therapists, medications, and TMS, our daughter was still fighting severe anxiety, depression, and OCD and her Drs recommended residential treatment. Living in Kansas, we quickly realized our lack of residential programs and found out of state programs were unaffordable. Luckily during our search, we happened to come across Jeff's name. We decided to go to Utah for her initial appointments and in the first hour we saw Jeff, we learned more than we had the entire year. By the third appt, our daughter said she no longer felt like hurting herself and finally had hope. Although we decided to stay for two weeks because of the severity she started with, we felt like we could have gone home after the first week. The change was amazing. We now do appointments from Kansas through telemed and still continue to see her make great progress!

Over the past few months I've been preparing to go out and serve a mission for my church. I had some social anxieties that were holding me back and I decided to come to Jeff for therapy. Overall it was an amazing experience and he helped me learn so much about myself and how to overcome my anxieties. My final couple months before leaving on my mission, Jeff had me do something called exposure therapy in which I met weekly with an exposure coach who helped me get past my anxiety by putting me in real life situations where I had to talk to people. The progress that I made in just a few weeks was absolutely incredible and there is a noticeable difference in my confidence. Some weeks were harder than others, but when I diligently did what my exposure coach asked me to do, talking to people became easier and I got better at facing social situations that used to terrify me. I used tools that I can use not only on my mission, but in my entire life. I leave on my mission in one week now and I feel SO much more prepared than I did just a couple months ago!

Finding a therapist is not a one size fits all experience and it takes some work on your part too. But if Jeff does fit with what you need and you do your part you will accomplish what you need to. He will give you all the necessary tools to continue to be successful. My experience with Jeff has been just that.

I have been to MANY counselors in my day between myself and my children. Most counselors only talk to you and really never have a plan. If you actually want positive results in a completely comfortable, educational and safe environment STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING and schedule an appointment immediately!! He has helped STOP debilitating anxiety in its tracks...IN ONE DAY and given hope where all hope seemed to be exhausted. FINALLY a counselor that listens to your story and then says "ok....lets set up an individual plan" he gives homework, sets goals and FOLLOWS UP....I cant say enough positive things!! His training and counseling IS LIFE CHANGING!! YOU dont just talk....YOU ACTUALLY ACT and take control of your healing. I love the cozy facility the zen atmosphere and the privacy. No one compares to Jeff Gregson. I feel completely blessed as do my children to have come across his practice.

I spent a lot of my life with mental stigmas about therapy.... until I found myself in dire need of some external help for some internal anxiety that reached it's peak in the form of panic. I contacted Dr. Gregson on a whim and honestly, I couldn't have been more fortunate to find a real, true, genuine therapist whose only concern was my well-being. I never felt like I went in to an appointment where he wasn't prepared and aware of my situation and concerns. It seems cliche to say he's a good listener but he really helped me work through my core anxiety and come out of a horribly dark place. Dr. Gregson is on time, organized and empathetic. He is kind and uses a variety of methods to help heal. He doesn't demand more appointments than is necessary and healthy based on your situation which is not the usual. I can't recommend him and his service enough.

Jeff G. was awesome! The intent was for my child to get the assistance needed, but I learned more about myself, and parenting in general, and our child got to learn right alongside with me. Jeff was very good at explaining in simple terms what kinds of behaviors to watch for/be aware of, and to explain how to cope/prevent the negative ones from bubbling over. He was great!
