I am passionate about helping individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, and substance abuse issues. Through assisting individuals explore their thoughts and emotions I aim to help them gain an understanding of who God created them to be and embrace the freedom available to them through Christ.
I have 16 years of experience working with individuals facing homelessness and addiction. I have worked both one-on-one with individuals seeking sobriety as well as designed and implemented programs that lead to long-term success in recovery. I have often seen individuals who have various mental health issues intertwined with their addiction and find great fulfillment in helping those who feel alone and/or forgotten.
The bulk of my experience has been in the realm of cognitive-behavioral therapy. Not only do I enjoy using these techniques to help individuals pursue recovery, but I also enjoy utilizing them to assist both teams and individuals manage conflicts in their relationships.

MyCounselor has as its aim to be the gold standard in faith-based mental health. Our counselors are required to have undergraduate studies in theology, practical ministry, or psychology and have completed a graduate (master’s) degree in mental health (professional counseling, clinical social work, marriage & family therapy, etc.).
After submitting an application package that includes transcripts, references, and video responses to a structured interview, qualified candidates are invited into a multi-stage interview process. During the process candidates will meet with clinical supervisors, perform a mock therapy session, and participate in a training with the MyCounselor clinical team. If advanced from the final interview with the Director of Clinical Services, candidates are offered a position on the clinical team and matriculated into the MyCounselor residency.
During residency counselors complete multiple rotations of clinical training and experience with specific populations, including individuals, couples, families, and teens. Specifically, residents are trained in the MyCounselor proprietary model of care: Neuroscience Informed Christian Counseling® (NICC) as applied in practice with various presenting issues.
The thorough training our counselors receive in a broad array of specialized rotations equips them to address counseling concerns ranging from the common to the complex.

I have been very impressed with our experience with Gregory Cooney. My husband was willing to do marriage counseling, but was definitely going into it with a sour attitude. I had no idea if things were going to change. By probably our 4th session my husband was seeing the benefits to why marriage counseling was important for our relationship and communication. Gregory has a great approach to helping couples and I am so thankful our marriage is on a healing path thanks to his help.

One of the most common questions I have seen people both in my personal and
professional life wrestle with has been “is selfcare selfish?” As Christians, we often tend to
struggle with not only this question, but an even bigger one, “is selfcare biblical?” We are called
to live sacrificial lives, so how does selfcare fit into that? My hope in this article is to start the
discussion around what exactly is selfcare, what does the Bible have to say about it, and what
are some examples of selfcare.
