Todd Gomez

Todd Gomez is a licensed social worker with twenty years of experience who helps people facing big life shifts and emotional strain. He focuses on clear, practical support for stress, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, and coping with life changes. Todd aims to make the first steps less overwhelming and to help people find steady footing again.

He uses straightforward conversation to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on everyday problems like work pressure, identity questions, separation, and low mood. The goal is to build skills and routines that make day-to-day life easier rather than spending time on jargon or labels.

Todd draws on several well-known approaches to shape the work. He blends acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral steps, and person-centered listening to match the client's needs. Mindfulness tools and emotionally focused ideas are used when they fit the situation.

Over two decades he has worked in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia and brings experience with diverse concerns such as LGBT matters, career strain, chronic illness, and caregiving stress. He also addresses issues related to adoption, blended families, body image, and aging.

Todd describes therapy as a collaborative process. He helps people set realistic goals, practice new ways of responding, and track progress. Prospective clients are invited to start with a short intake to see whether his style feels like a good match.

How his approaches translate to online work

Todd uses approaches that adapt well to remote sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values; it can help with grief, life transitions, and ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which works well for anxiety, low mood, and everyday problem solving. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so the person sets the pace and agenda for change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Todd will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that feel useful. He treats the choice of approach as a team decision and adjusts strategies based on what the client notices is helping.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and offer flexibility in scheduling. They also allow for simpler check-ins when people need brief support between larger steps. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the intake questionnaire so sessions align with your needs.
