About Abdias

Abdias Gomez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and anger. He also supports people coping with stress, grief, sleep problems, and addictive behaviors.

He uses straightforward, practical methods in session. Conversations focus on clear goals and small steps clients can try between meetings. Sessions often include looking at thought patterns, developing new ways to respond, and processing difficult memories when needed.

Abdias blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means he listens carefully and helps people test new ways of thinking and acting. He also uses EMDR for trauma-focused work and draws on solution-focused methods to set achievable short-term goals.

He works with issues such as ADHD, eating and body image concerns, panic attacks, social anxiety, and challenges related to multicultural stress and prejudice. First responder experiences, impulsivity, and relationship communication problems are also within his focus areas.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. His approach is collaborative - he helps clients pick the interventions that fit their goals and situation. The practice notes that subscription-based sessions are used and can be canceled at any time.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. International clients are not currently accepted.

How his approaches work online

This therapist uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people who struggle with anger, anxiety, or depression. Client-centered work means the therapist listens and prioritizes the client’s own goals and perspectives. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests new behaviors to reduce reactive responses.

He also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, when trauma-related memories are driving strong emotional reactions. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories so those memories become less disruptive in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will help assess what fits best based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjustments are made as progress and challenges emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking.

Many people find virtual sessions help them practice skills in real life between meetings while keeping therapy practical and focused.
