About Abdias

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of experience. Abdias Gomez helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD, sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, anger, and LGBT-related concerns. He conducts sessions in English and Spanish and uses practical methods to address day-to-day problems.

Gomez focuses on clear, collaborative work. He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person’s concerns and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also uses EMDR for trauma-related symptoms and Motivational Interviewing to support change when motivation fluctuates.

Sessions tend to emphasize concrete skills and short-term strategies alongside deeper trauma work when needed. Clients can expect talk that aims to name patterns, build coping steps, and try small experiments between meetings. The therapist frames progress as a sequence of specific goals rather than vague ideals.

Gomez has spent many years working with multicultural concerns and first responder issues, and with people reporting panic attacks, social anxiety, or compulsive behaviors around food and body image. He also addresses grief, self-harm thoughts, narcissism-related dynamics, and prejudice or discrimination as issues that affect daily life.

Practical matters such as scheduling and payment follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. For new clients, the usual first step is to complete a brief matching questionnaire and book an initial session through the platform.

How his approaches translate to remote work

Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s concerns at the center and emphasizes listening and collaboration; online sessions can use that same approach to set priorities and track progress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing small behavioral changes, which translates well to brief exercises and homework that can be reviewed between sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) targets trauma-related symptoms with structured processing techniques when trauma work is needed.

Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, symptom patterns, and personal preferences with each person to decide whether to emphasize CBT, EMDR, Client-Centered methods, or a combination. That decision is made together and can change as needs evolve.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into daily life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, and enabling camera-off options if someone prefers less visual focus. These practical benefits make it easier to attend regular sessions while balancing work, caregiving, or other commitments.
