About Trisha
Trisha Smith-Gomes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns like stress, anxiety, parenting struggles, anger, self-esteem, and attention-related challenges. Trisha uses everyday language and practical steps to help people untangle what feels overwhelming and move forward one step at a time.
Trisha listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people name what’s happening. She focuses on developing concrete coping strategies for emotion regulation, managing impulsivity, and improving communication. Sessions include talking through current conflicts, practicing new responses, and planning simple experiments to try between meetings.
She also addresses caregiver stress, workplace issues, social anxiety, isolation, and questions about life purpose and self-love. For parents and young adults she offers guidance on setting boundaries, managing expectations, and improving day-to-day routines. Her work with attention challenges emphasizes practical supports rather than labels.
Trisha frames therapy as collaborative problem-solving. She looks at what already works and where small changes could reduce strain. Progress is tracked in clear, observable ways such as fewer arguments, improved sleep, or better concentration at work or school.

BHow sessions work
Practical approaches for online work and day-to-day problems
Trisha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavioral changes. One common approach helps people learn emotion regulation skills and manage impulsivity through step-by-step techniques and in-session practice. This is useful for anger, stress, and attention-related challenges.Another approach emphasizes problem-solving and communication coaching. Sessions often involve identifying specific conflicts, rehearsing different responses, and creating short plans to test between meetings. That method targets workplace issues, parenting struggles, and relationship communication problems.
Choosing which approach fits best is part of the work. Trisha treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help clients decide which techniques to try based on their goals, daily life demands, and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is observed.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Confirm the exact session options during the scheduling steps so sessions match practical needs and routines.
