About Abdias

Abdias Gomez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. He supports people dealing with attention differences, addiction, anger, and concerns like body image and social anxiety. Abdias speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy approachable for people from many backgrounds.

He focuses on clear, practical steps in session. Conversations often start with current problems and move toward small experiments to try between visits. He uses client-centered listening so people feel heard, and mixes in cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Abdias also offers trauma-focused work and uses EMDR when appropriate to help people process distressing memories. He brings solution-focused ideas to help clients set short-term goals and notice progress sooner. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want to change habits but feel stuck.

Sessions are grounded in respect for cultural background and life context. Abdias pays attention to how issues like prejudice, identity, or first-responder stress shape everyday struggles. He helps people improve communication, manage impulsivity, and build routines for better sleep and eating when those areas cause trouble.

How his approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's perspective. In practice this means sessions begin with the client's concerns and the therapist reflects what he hears so goals become clearer. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple skills to change patterns that keep problems going. EMDR, used as part of trauma-focused work, involves guided procedures to help people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Abdias will talk with clients about their needs and preferences and suggest options. He aims to collaborate on a plan that fits the person's life and goals rather than insisting on one method.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as options are set by the practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support consistent work on trauma, anxiety, or habit change by keeping therapy regular and focused on real-world tasks.
