About Todd

Todd Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience. He offers a calm, respectful space for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Todd also helps those navigating identity questions and the particular pressures faced by LGBT people.

He focuses on practical, down-to-earth support. Sessions often center on clear goals, learning skills to manage emotions, and improving communication. Todd listens for each person’s strengths and then helps build steps that fit everyday life.

Todd combines several well-known approaches in his work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered methods. He blends those with mindfulness and emotionally-focused ideas to match what someone needs in the moment.

Over two decades he has worked across the Southeast and brings experience with issues like career stress, caregiving strain, chronic illness, body image, and loss. He also helps people facing adoption or foster care questions, blended family concerns, and separation or divorce.

Todd works from South Carolina and offers services in English. He accepts international clients. If you want someone who emphasizes practical strategies, clear communication, and steady support, he may be a good fit.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Todd commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take action even when feelings are uncomfortable. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes by teaching practical steps to move toward what matters.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors. CBT offers concrete tools for managing mood, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together the client and therapist try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust them over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or between commitments. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Many people find virtual work helpful for practicing skills in real situations, keeping continuity during life transitions, and maintaining regular check-ins without rearranging an entire day.
