Sports Performance Mental Game

Athletes have said to me, “I like what you are teaching because now I have something I can actually do and can depend on to stay calm and relaxed and mentally tough.”

You will learn mental-and-emotional-self-management skills so that you become self-reliant in handling the ups and downs in sports, in academics and in life. I am bridging the gap by teaching methods, along with bringing you the latest innovations in mental-game techniques.

Please call Greg for fee quotes and explanation of the listed service offerings at (541) 971-9810 or contact him by email to request services.

Parenting for Self-Reliance Ask More, Tell Less

Parenting for Self-Reliance Ask More, Tell Less

Greg is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon. Greg has worked with kids, teens and families for the past 30 years and has mastered the art of building self-reliance in children. Greg holds an unwavering belief in the capabilities of kids; knowing that children are capable of handling much of their own getting-on-with-growing up when the “life stage” is set for them to do so. Greg works to help set the life stage for kids and parents by demystifying counseling strategies and introducing them to the parent public in understandable and usable ways. I have been thanked many times over the past 30 years for taking complicated ideas and making them simple and clear. I remember one husband and wife saying, “Thanks for giving us a way to talk to our kids. It wasn’t that we didn’t want to talk to them; it was just that we hadn’t found a way.”

“One parent, after a series of workshops Greg conducted for their “Parents and Tots” group wrote him, saying, “…as a parent, I think your ideas about talking with children are profoundly new and surprising, not least because the central concept—asking kids questions—is so darn obvious.”

“The preview of the book I got was extremely helpful. Literally for the very first day I started asking my daughter (age 3 -4) open questions, my life changed. At first, it was just me, I was relaxed, and I did not feel as if my head was going to explode any minute. Even the first time I asked Susie “Are you going to grow up or grow down?” and she said…”
