More about Greg In addition to Solutions 2 Wellbeing and Recovery Technology L.L.C., Greg Gallagher has operated two homeless shelters that provide free transportation services for clients who need assistance due to disability. Greg has introduced many programs to the community, including Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) which involves 24 hour assistance to clients with a site located right in their neighborhood.  Another treatment program of great magnitude that was introduced and promoted by Gallagher to behavioral health practitioners in Michigan is Dialectical Behavior Therapy, (DBT) which is used in the treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). The DBT method is the first treatment illustrated by clinical research to be effective for people suffering from Borderline Personality Disorders.  Greg is a trained to certify other practitioners in Dialectical Behavior Therapy; and because of his drive and concern to raise the bar in client services, he has conducted dozens of training sessions throughout the state of Michigan. Also, another significant program introduced by Gallagher was Moral Reconation Therapy, the first of its kind in Jackson County. This treatment addresses the unique needs of offender populations, enhancing ego, social and moral growth in a step by step fashion, and has been found to be very effective within the school setting in reducing attendance and behavior problems as well as issues over grades. Prior to becoming an entrepreneur Greg made a huge impact in the community behavioral health arena, working first as an Outpatient Therapist for Community Mental Health, and also as the Union Steward for the entire Outpatient Clinic Staff. He then served as a Program Manager for outpatient services until he was promoted to be the Coordinator for all CMH services in Jackson and Hillsdale counties. Later, he became the first Associate Director for Jackson and Hillsdale CMH services.  During his tenure as Associate Director of clinical services, he was instrumental in bringing the organization from a $4 million agency to a $40 million agency that accomplished transferring over 500 people from state psychiatric institutions to appropriate community environments. During that time he also assisted with the implementation of 20 Community Living Facilities, two Crisis Homes and one Behavior Home.  As Associate Director, Greg was also instrumental in the development of residential housing options, creating ten independent living apartments, a Fair-weather Lodge, and over 150 Adult Foster Care Homes in Jackson and Hillsdale County. These places went on to serve well over 1000 people who were disabled.  With those career accomplishments behind him, Greg retired as an employee of Lifeways and became a consultant, though he continued to provide treatment to consumers at the Crisis Home. It was during this time that Greg developed Recovery Technology.  With his passion to raise the bar in behavioral health, Greg designed and put into action the first Telemedicine Program in Michigan for Community Mental Health recipients. He later collaborated with Michigan State University and was awarded a grant that allowed for further expansion of the Telemedicine Program to include Jackson, Hillsdale and Lenawee counties.   517.787.WISH (9474)
