About Abdias

Abdias Gomez is an LPC based in Texas who brings 19 years of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and related concerns.

Background and approach

He addresses a wide range of issues including grief, ADHD, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and LGBTQ matters, plus areas such as body image, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and multicultural challenges. His practice also supports those dealing with communication problems, impulsivity, self-harm, and social anxiety.

Gomez draws on several evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person's needs, blending Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered principles and trauma-focused tools like EMDR when indicated. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies are also part of his toolkit to help clients move toward practical change and clearer goals.

Bilingual in English and Spanish, he aims to create an approachable, respectful space for exploration and growth while adapting interventions to individual backgrounds. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats and scheduled according to availability.

Prospective clients can begin by completing a brief matching questionnaire and arranging appointments that fit their timing and preferences.

Integrating therapeutic approaches in online care

Abdias Gomez uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. He also employs Client-Centered Therapy, focusing on empathic listening and collaboration so clients can explore their experiences and build self-understanding. When trauma is a core concern, he may incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a trauma-focused tool to aid processing of difficult memories.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He aims to collaborate with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility for people balancing schedules or geographic constraints. These formats allow ongoing therapeutic work, regular check-ins, and varied ways to communicate so clients can pick what fits them best.
