About Gregory

Gregory Speed helps people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, career struggles, depression, and major life changes. He practices in New Jersey and brings a calm, steady presence to conversations. He treats each person with respect and compassion.

Gregory holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, and has decades of experience to draw on. He takes time to understand what matters to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that fit everyday life.

Background and approach

He will tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs rather than use a one-size-fits-all approach. Gregory has 47 years of professional experience. He has worked with veterans affected by combat deployments and serves on a local Citizens Veterans Advisory Committee.

That background shapes how he listens to military-related concerns and to the effects of trauma and loss. In sessions he aims to be direct but gentle. He supports people as they name stressful events, sort through emotions, and try new ways of coping.

He also helps with career decisions and rebuilding routine after big changes. People who meet with him can expect a collaborative process. He helps set small, achievable steps and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

The goal is to find ways to feel more capable and to move toward a more satisfying daily life.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Gregory lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Many of the approaches Gregory uses focus on practical skills and processing difficult events. Trauma-focused methods help people talk through painful memories, reduce distressing reactions, and build coping skills for daily life. Grief-oriented approaches concentrate on naming the loss, expressing feelings, and finding ways to carry on meaningful routines. Career-focused work helps sort options, identify values, and take small steps toward goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your history, goals, and preferences and then recommend techniques that fit your situation. You can try different methods and adjust the plan as you go so the work matches what helps most.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets you have a face-to-face conversation from wherever you are. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or to use shorter, more frequent contact. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
