Hello there! I'm Gregory Davenport.
I have been working in the life coaching, mental health and addiction field profession for nine years. I use an eclectic approach, however, the theoretical frameworks that most define me professionally combine unconditional positive regard, spiritual/faith-based and cognitive-behavioral theory. My style is pragmatic, professional, down-to-earth, and based upon professional and personal-life experiences. I have a unique ability to therapeutically join with clients which is partly due to my personality, style and vernacular.
I believe that I have been given the purpose of helping those in need. I know that my mission is to help my clients reconnect with their faith, and their loved ones through counseling. I am an eclectic counselor that utilizes multiple theories such as Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy in congruence with the Christian faith.
What is it like to work with me?
Humor - Let's face it, therapy, counseling, or whatever you'd like to call it does NOT always have to be so serious. I enjoy the fact that my client's and I can laugh together. I believe that laughter is so important when exploring topics that are difficult and challenging.
Culturally Sensitive - I have worked with many clients over the years that come from all walks of life. That includes culturally, ethnically, religiously, spiritually, age, or socioeconomic status, I respect and value all my clients for who they are. The truth is that we all have a history, and that history is part of our story to be told and valued.
