About Autumn

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with three years of clinical experience, Autumn Goss focuses on anxiety, stress, relationships, anger, self-esteem, and life changes. She sees adults, teens, and couples and works to help people reduce overwhelm and improve how they relate to themselves and others.

Autumn started on a college campus supporting young adults through anxiety, depression, identity questions, and major transitions. Those early years shaped how she links life-stage stressors and early relational experiences to current emotion and behavior. She later joined the Orange County Crisis Assessment Team, doing de-escalation and safety assessments for people in acute distress.

In private practice she helps people notice patterns that drive reactivity. She focuses on practical skills and clearer communication so clients can respond with intention rather than impulsive emotion. With couples she uses a Gottman-informed approach to address attachment ruptures, rebuild trust after betrayal, and improve everyday interaction.

Her work combines evidence-based tools with a direct, collaborative style. Sessions include skill practice, reflection on relationship patterns, and check-ins on immediate coping. Autumn aims to help clients develop steady ways of managing anxiety, anger, and the hard parts of relationships.

Clients can expect a therapist who draws on crisis experience and campus mental health work to balance calm assessment with active, skills-focused sessions. She supports people navigating guilt, shame, isolation, questions of life purpose, and social anxiety as part of that practical work.

How Autumn’s approaches translate to remote work

Autumn works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and relationship patterns. One approach she uses is Gottman-informed couples work, which centers on improving daily communication, repairing trust, and reducing repetitive conflict cycles. That method is practical and focuses on specific conversation and repair skills useful for couples facing attachment wounds or betrayal.

Another strand of her work emphasizes anxiety and emotion regulation skills drawn from evidence-based practices. These sessions teach breathing, grounding, and thought-monitoring strategies to reduce overwhelm and manage intense reactions. The focus is on practicing techniques that can be used between sessions for steadying mood and behavior.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. She will help clients identify goals, try interventions, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist decide together which tools to prioritize as work progresses.

If you want to use online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people focus on skills practice in a comfortable setting and schedule sessions around school or work obligations.
