About Verdale
LPC in Texas with three years of experience, Dr. Verdale Goins focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. He also pays attention to infidelity, jealousy, veteran and armed forces issues, and multicultural concerns. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy in his work. Sessions are conducted in English and he does not accept international clients.
Dr. Goins begins sessions with a short personal background from the client and uses that to shape assessment and treatment planning. He prioritizes practical skills to help people manage symptoms and handle everyday problems. That includes working on mood and anger, and building coping strategies people can use between sessions.
He draws on his own experience as an Air Force veteran when addressing veteran and armed forces issues. He also offers life coaching and substance abuse support as part of his practice, in addition to individual therapy. The biography notes a long history of personal experience in related areas alongside his professional work.
Typically he opens appointments with about two minutes of personal background and then listens to the client’s history to establish rapport and gather assessment information. From there he collaborates on a treatment plan that fits the client’s concerns and goals. The approach is focused on concrete steps and measurable progress.
Clients should confirm current session options before booking, since the original biography did not list specific session formats. Scheduling begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and then choosing a first session time through the site.

How his methods are used in remote sessions
CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. In sessions this can mean tracking specific thoughts and testing small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear, short-term goals and building on what already works. Sessions often set one or two concrete steps to try between meetings and note measurable progress at follow ups.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy continues so plans can change if something isn’t helpful.
The biography did not specify which remote session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commuting time. They also let people continue care when schedules or location make in-person visits difficult.
