Diego Gomez, LMHC

Diego Gomez is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He speaks English and Spanish and brings ten years of experience guiding people through stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, grief, and related concerns. He aims to create a calm space where people can talk, be heard, and begin to make practical changes to day-to-day habits and thinking.

Diego uses a person-centered, attentive style. He focuses on listening first, then offering straightforward tools and explanations. Sessions combine supportive talk with clear psychoeducation so people understand why certain strategies can help. He emphasizes changing unhelpful thought patterns and everyday habits to reduce distress and improve functioning.

His approach is flexible and integrates methods from several therapies to match each person’s needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered work to build a plan together. The goal is to strengthen coping skills and increase self-awareness through practical steps.

Diego has worked with concerns that range from obsessive-compulsive issues and trauma to parenting strain and career stress. He also supports people facing addiction, bipolar mood challenges, intimacy questions, and challenges linked to autism and Asperger Syndrome. He offers a steady, nonjudgmental presence while helping people test small changes that fit into daily life.

How his approaches guide online work

Diego draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and develop more workable habits. ACT focuses on clarifying values and learning to accept difficult feelings while taking steps that matter. CBT teaches practical tools to identify and change thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going.

He also uses client-centered methods that emphasize listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship. That means the direction of sessions often comes from what the person finds most pressing, and techniques are adjusted together. Finding the best approach is part of the work; he will help determine which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences in collaboration with them.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for more consistent check-ins. Some people find virtual sessions let them focus on skills practice between meetings, while others prefer in-person contact; Diego will help tailor the plan so sessions match day-to-day routines and goals.
