About
Gage Peavler, LMSW, brings five years of clinical practice to work with people coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and depression. He centers his work on attentive listening and practical strategies that address both immediate symptoms and the histories that shape them. Gage draws on a selection of behavioral and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients identify patterns, build skills, and make values-based choices.
Gage also offers focused support for a wide range of related concerns, including relationship and communication difficulties, caregiving strain, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, and issues related to sexual expression and kink. He meets people where they are and helps them translate insight into concrete steps toward clearer thinking and steadier functioning. Gage is based in Michigan and holds an LMSW, and he frames collaboration as a process of shared discovery: the therapist brings methods and structure, and the client brings goals and life knowledge.
Prospective clients can expect a methodical yet compassionate approach that blends cognitive, behavioral, and acceptance-based tools with mindfulness and motivational techniques. Gage’s work is oriented toward helping people develop tools they can use outside of sessions to better manage symptoms and relationships.

Remote sessions that combine skills and mindfulness
Gage offers remote sessions that emphasize skills training and present-moment awareness. He commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support clients in clarifying values and taking committed action. These approaches are explained in accessible terms and applied collaboratively so each person can decide which techniques fit their goals.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy are also part of his toolkit for managing intense emotions and building distress tolerance. Motivational Interviewing techniques may be used when exploring ambivalence or making changes related to substance use and other behaviors. Meetings can work well for people who prefer structured skill practice alongside reflective exploration.
Sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that best supports attendance and engagement. Gage describes the therapist-client relationship as a partnership in which practical exercises and ongoing feedback shape the path forward.
