Gregory B. Milbourne

My approach is eclectic and personalized to what you need. Individual work is time for you: more self-awareness, a look at the hurdles, habits you can build, and strengths that have been hard to see. With couples I treat the rough spots as material for connection, understanding, and a shared purpose. You learn practical ways to talk through a conflict, to feel heard, and to notice your own patterns, reactions, and needs.

I use Internal Family Systems so we can understand the different parts of you. I use EMDR when trauma or anxiety is what we are working on, alongside ordinary talking treatment. Mindfulness is one of the techniques I draw on, including attention to the breath and to what you are actually doing. In marital and sex therapy I use what I call Emotions Focused Therapy, to widen healthy behaviors and reduce distress. My goal is to maximize connection to your strength and wisdom.

I work with adults, couples, and families, and with people from adolescence into later life. The minimum age for therapy with me is 14, and I have worked with people from childhood into retirement. I enjoy working with veterans and first responders, and with people striving for recovery from addictions, including the family members and supporters around them. I also see therapists, counselors, and other professionals who want to reflect on their own work, whether that is a brief consultation on a difficult case or a look at how the work is affecting them. Couples may be dating, married, living together, LGBTQ, or separating. I welcome clients who identify as gay, lesbian, non-binary, or queer. Young adults and older adults are both part of the practice.

I bring a varied and eclectic style. I am a licensed psychologist, a father, a husband, and a runner, a first Gulf War era Army officer, and a former country manager of an American business in Russia.

I am a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania. The practice follows time living in Europe, including service as an Army officer during the first Gulf War, and work as a country manager of an American business in Russia. I have worked with people from childhood into retirement, including veterans and first responders, and with people overcoming addictions. I also consult to select businesses, and I offer time for other therapists.
