Gregg Palmer, ACA

Gregg Palmer is an ACA counsellor with 17 years' experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and intimacy-related concerns. He also supports people dealing with self-esteem struggles and a wide range of related issues. Gregg speaks English and works from Australia.

Gregg offers a calm, relational style. He pays attention to how people experience emotions in their bodies and how past relationships shape current patterns. Sessions often look at unhelpful everyday thoughts and habits that keep problems going. He aims to help people notice small changes that make daily life easier.

He has particular experience with attachment and abandonment issues, blended family concerns, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and challenges around sexuality including BDSM and kink. He also supports those coping with addiction, divorce and separation, family of origin issues, and emptiness. Gregg encourages people to bring whatever matters to them, even if it feels small.

Gregg trained in psychosynthesis and completed a Master of Psychotherapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling, both validated by the University of East London. He trained at the Psychosynthesis Trust and has worked in multidisciplinary teams. He has also contributed to counsellor training programmes.

In sessions he blends depth-oriented exploration with practical attention to thoughts and everyday habits. He listens for patterns in feelings, relationships and behaviour, and helps people try different ways of responding. This approach supports clearer decision making and steadier emotional balance.

Approaches that address thoughts, habits and attachment

Gregg draws on depth-oriented and relational approaches that focus on how past relationships shape present responses. This work looks at repeating patterns, transference and countertransference dynamics to help people understand why certain thoughts and habits keep returning. It can be useful for relationship difficulties, attachment concerns and persistent self-criticism.

He also uses psychosynthesis-informed methods which integrate emotional, bodily and spiritual aspects of experience. These techniques help people notice bodily signals and inner parts that influence everyday choices, making it easier to change unhelpful habits and calmer ways of thinking.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gregg works with each person to identify goals and preferences, and will try different ways of working until a good fit emerges. He involves clients in deciding whether more exploratory or more practical work is needed at any stage.
