Meet Alana Gregg, MS, LPC Candidate

Specializing in Grief Counseling, Anxiety Treatment, and EMDR Therapy in Ambler, PA

I understand that life often feels heavier than we let others see. If you’re grappling with loss, anxiety, or relational struggles, I’m here to help you uncover what’s weighing you down and equip you with the tools to move forward. Together, we’ll address not just the symptoms but the root causes, so you can experience true healing and lasting change.

Who I Help

Whether you’re navigating a difficult life transition, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or struggling to rebuild after a loss, I offer a compassionate space to explore your challenges and practical strategies to take back control. My goal is to empower you with skills to manage life’s stressors while digging deeper to uncover the root of the pain and rewrite your story.

I also specialize in:

• Loss of loved ones
• Traumatic histories
• Relationship challenges
• Reconnecting Couples

Grief Counseling

Grief is messy and unpredictable, and it can feel like you’re stuck in a never-ending cycle of pain. I understand the back-and-forth of grieving and the guilt that can arise when joy feels out of reach. Through our work together, you’ll gain tools to navigate this emotional rollercoaster and rediscover a sense of purpose and hope for the future.

Anxiety Treatment

Anxiety doesn’t have to rule your life. If you’re caught in a spiral of worry or panic, we’ll work together to find practical ways to ease your daily stress while addressing the underlying causes. Imagine living with less fear and more freedom—it’s possible.

Trauma Counseling with EMDR Therapy

Sometimes, the weight of past experiences can keep us stuck, replaying painful memories or limiting beliefs. I am fully trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective tool for trauma recovery. With EMDR, we’ll work to reprocess those stuck memories so you can break free from the past and move forward with clarity and confidence.

What It’s Like to Work with Me

Starting counseling can feel intimidating, but I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where you feel safe to be yourself. We’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, regularly reviewing progress to ensure you’re moving toward the life you want.

For those who desire, I also offer Christian counseling, integrating faith with evidence-based practices. If spirituality isn’t a focus for you, I respect that and provide a space where your beliefs are honored and your goals remain the priority.

A Bit About Me

I received my Master’s degree in Counseling from Cairn University and am currently working toward licensure under the supervision of Nate Bailey, MA, LPC.

When I’m not counseling, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our three kids, running with our energetic dog, and escaping to the beach whenever possible. I love curling up with a good book—thrillers are my favorite—and I’ll never turn down a plate of tacos or a chance to explore new hiking trails. Fun fact: I ran a 10k through Disney World!

Therapeutic Techniques I Use

I tailor my approach to fit your unique needs, drawing from:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helping you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns.
• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Strengthening relationships by focusing on emotional bonds.
• EMDR Therapy: Facilitating healing from trauma and stuck memories.

Take the First Step Toward Change

Whether you’re seeking relief from anxiety, hope after loss, or stronger relationships, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, equip you with practical tools, and work toward the lasting change you deserve.
