About Diego

Diego Gomez is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who offers a decade of clinical experience addressing a broad range of emotional and behavioral concerns. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, ADHD, and relationship or family challenges.

Background and approach

Diego also supports clients coping with issues such as sleep problems, self-esteem, career questions, intimacy-related struggles, and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. His approach blends evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered work to tailor treatment to each person's needs.

He emphasizes attentive, empathic interaction and uses psychoeducation alongside supportive psychotherapy to foster insight and skills for change. Diego aims to help clients expand awareness, challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, and build practical strategies to manage symptoms and life transitions.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish for people located in Florida. Diego brings a respectful, nonjudgmental stance to therapy, prioritizing rapport and collaboration so clients can pursue clearer goals and greater resilience.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Diego uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive patterns through structured exercises and skill-building. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in clarifying values, accepting difficult internal experiences, and taking committed action toward meaningful goals. Client-centered therapy is another pillar of his work, offering empathic, nonjudgmental listening that helps people feel heard and understood while they explore personal concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Diego works with each person to assess their needs, preferences, and goals, then blends techniques from different methods to create an individualized plan. Clients can expect to discuss what feels most useful and to adjust the direction of therapy as progress and priorities emerge.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and session style. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into a busy life, and access therapeutic support from home or another suitable space while working through stress, mood challenges, relationship struggles, or life transitions.
