A therapist who sees the whole person — not just the symptom.

I'm Gayle Greenberger, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Westport, Connecticut. Over the past 15+ years, I've walked alongside hundreds of individuals, couples, and families as they navigate some of life's most difficult chapters.

My practice is built on a simple belief: every person has the capacity for growth, even when it doesn't feel that way. I bring warmth, directness, and clinical expertise to every session — because healing doesn't happen in a vacuum, and it doesn't happen without a real human connection.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, working through past trauma, navigating a relationship crisis, or simply feeling stuck, we'll meet you exactly where you are and move forward at a pace that feels right for you.

Safe Space Nonjudgmental, confidential, and tailored to you.
Flexible Scheduling Evening and weekend appointments available.
Insurance Accepted Out-of-network billing and superbills provided.

What I work on with clients

Every concern is valid. Here are the areas I specialize in — but no topic is too big or too small to bring into session.

01

Anxiety & Stress

Chronic worry, panic, overthinking, and the physical toll of living in a constant state of alert. Together we'll build tools that actually work.

02

Trauma & PTSD

Past experiences don't have to run your present. I offer trauma-informed care using evidence-based approaches to help you process and move forward.

03

Depression

Feeling numb, hopeless, or disconnected is exhausting. Therapy can help you reconnect with what matters and find a path out of the dark.

04

Life Transitions

Career changes, grief, divorce, parenthood — big shifts can leave you unmoored. Let's navigate them with intention and self-compassion.

05

Couples Therapy

Relationships take work. Whether you're in crisis or just want to deepen your connection, we'll create space for honest, productive dialogue.

06

Teen Counseling

Adolescence is hard. I provide a supportive, judgment-free space for teens dealing with anxiety, school stress, identity, and family dynamics.

Therapy that meets you where you are — and gently expands from there.

1

Free Consultation

A brief, no-obligation call to see if we're a good fit. I'll answer your questions and help you understand what to expect from therapy.

2

Initial Assessment

We'll explore your history, your concerns, and your goals. This is where we build a shared understanding of what brings you in.

3

Collaborative Plan

Together we'll set meaningful goals and choose the therapeutic approaches that best fit your needs and personality.

4

Ongoing Growth

Progress isn't linear. We'll regularly check in, adjust as needed, and celebrate the wins — big and small.

Modalities I draw from:
CBT EMDR Psychodynamic Attachment-Based Mindfulness Solution-Focused Trauma-Informed
