About Todd

Todd Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and career questions. He offers an affirming, nonjudgmental approach that aims to make conversations feel straightforward and useful. People often come for help with relationships, grief, identity concerns, or major life changes. Todd focuses on understanding each person's story and strengths. Sessions are collaborative - he listens, asks practical questions, and helps people set small, achievable steps. He draws from a range of methods to match what feels most helpful for the person in front of him. His background includes practice across South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, and he holds the credentials LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and LISW (Licensed Independent Social Worker). That experience includes supporting people through adoption and foster care issues, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and recovery from separation or divorce. Todd uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered work to help with mood, coping, and behavior change. He also brings mindfulness and emotionally-focused techniques into sessions when they fit a person's goals. People seeking help with career pressures, self-esteem, or identity exploration will find a practitioner who prioritizes clear goals and practical strategies. He welcomes international clients and conducts work in English. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.

How certain approaches translate to online work

Todd uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can aid with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to build practical tools for mood and coping. Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will work collaboratively to figure out which methods match a person's goals and preferences. That collaboration includes trying techniques, checking what helps, and shifting the plan as needed. The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online work can also make it simpler to continue care when life or work requires flexibility. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to conversation, worksheets, and in-session practice to keep work focused and practical.
