About Diego

LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience, Diego Gomez helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, ADHD, trauma and related issues. He speaks English and Spanish. The biography notes work with a wide range of presenting problems, including mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, and compassion fatigue.

Diego describes a person-centered, dialog-based approach. He uses elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Sessions include supportive psychotherapy and psychoeducation to help clients understand patterns and try new coping strategies.

He emphasizes building a respectful therapeutic relationship and offers unconditional positive regard while keeping discussion objective and nonjudgmental. The work aims to increase self-awareness, question unhelpful thought patterns, and develop practical skills for everyday challenges. That approach is intended for people facing life changes, parenting stresses, or persistent mood and anxiety symptoms.

The profile lists additional focus areas such as autism and Asperger syndrome, impulse control issues, communication and commitment difficulties, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. It also cites experience with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) and related behavioral concerns.

Background includes a decade of providing psychotherapy in Florida and practice described as integrative and eclectic. The entry notes a history of working with a broad range of concerns rather than a single specialty. Readers should confirm current session formats before booking.

How his approaches translate to remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that reflect personal values. Online work with ACT often involves values clarification, brief behavioral experiments, and mindfulness practices adapted to video or phone meetings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and test them with real-world experiments. In remote sessions CBT typically uses short skills practice, homework assignments, and review of what worked between meetings to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Diego frames finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and daily routines rather than imposing a single technique. That means adjustments in pacing, emphasis, and homework happen together over the first few sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow focused skills practice, and permit shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing preferences for camera use, session length, and homework helps shape how online work will actually look.
