    About Abdias

    Abdias Gomez is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, addictions, and issues related to identity such as LGBT concerns. He speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy accessible for people from different backgrounds.

    In sessions he focuses on clear goals and practical steps. He uses tools from Motivational Interviewing to support change, and draws on client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep conversations frank and respectful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors.

    He has worked with first responders and with people navigating multicultural challenges. That experience informs his approach to trauma and post-traumatic stress, panic, and problems like anger and impulsivity. He also addresses eating and sleeping concerns, body image, and communication problems.

    Therapy with him is collaborative. He listens first, then helps build a plan that fits daily life. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal oriented, with steady check-ins on progress.

    To begin, people pick the Start Therapy button, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist's availability. Fees vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time.

  1. How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

    Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It focuses on listening, asking open questions, and building motivation one step at a time. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the center of the conversation, using empathy and reflection to clarify priorities and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and tests small experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.

    Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.

    The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, limit travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. They also make it possible to continue work on skills between appointments. The therapist will work with each person to arrange session timing and structure that match day-to-day life and goals.
