About Todd

Todd Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and a licensed independent social worker (LISW) with about 20 years of practice in the region. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and life transitions. He also helps those dealing with LGBT concerns, career pressure, bipolar disorder, and self-esteem difficulties.

Todd uses straightforward, practical conversation to identify what is getting in the way. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can be tried between meetings. He draws on strategies from cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to interrupt unhelpful thinking and to improve daily coping.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and make choices consistent with those values. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas inform work on improving communication and repairing hurt in close relationships. These approaches are combined in ways that match each person’s situation and preferences.

Todd’s background includes work across South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia over two decades. That experience has included helping people with adoption and foster care issues, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, blended family concerns, and recovery from separation or divorce. He accepts clients from outside the United States and conducts therapy in English.

BHow sessions work

How Todd’s approaches translate to online sessions

Todd often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters to them and take small steps toward it, even with difficult thoughts present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

He also uses Client-Centered principles to prioritize the client’s perspective and Emotionally-Focused ideas when relationships or communication are central. These methods are explained in plain terms and tested collaboratively so the client can learn what helps. Finding the right approach is part of the work together, and Todd will help decide which methods fit the client’s goals and day-to-day life.

Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Many people appreciate online sessions for fitting therapy into a workday, reducing travel time, or allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing session length, pacing, and how often to meet is part of the initial planning so therapy can be arranged around everyday responsibilities.
