About me

Each individual is unique in determining the value of their life. The unique essence is based on life experiences and thoughts about these experiences. This determines the multidimensional and in-depth characterization of how one maneuvers through life challenges. Dr. Gillispie offers the opportunity to unleash the power of how thoughts can be structured to overcome unfortunate life situations and experiences, rather than allowing thoughts to channel a life toward destruction.
As a Psychotherapist with over four decades devoted to behavioral science and helping others, I have provided help to an array of couples and individuals experiencing emotional difficulties from various backgrounds and causes. It is my belief that through the Holy Spirit I rely, I hear individuals hurts with my ears, but process what I hear with my heart, which start the healing process.

Dr. Gillespie takes the time to listen to me and is a very good at encouraging me to take action on overcoming dysfunction/dysregualted thoughts. He also gives me practical advice on how to counteract those negative thought patterns. Also, besides being my therapist, he is also just enjoyable to talk to. It's nice to have someone like him to just be completely honest with. Most importantly, Dr. Gillispie points me to Jesus and that means everything. Overall, he is a very good counselor and would highly recommend to anyone dealing with negative thoughts.
