About Todd

Todd Gomez is a licensed social worker with 20 years of experience who helps people facing big life changes and emotional strain. He offers a calm, affirming space for people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, career stress, and questions about identity. Todd works with clients on relationship issues, self-esteem, and coping after loss or illness.

He uses straightforward, person-focused care. Sessions aim to understand the story a person brings and to build practical ways forward. Todd listens for strengths and patterns, then helps clients try small changes that can make daily life easier.

His background includes practice across South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, and he holds LCSW and LISW credentials. That experience informs how he supports people through transitions like divorce, caregiving strain, adoption and foster care challenges, or aging-related changes.

Todd draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor work to each person. He blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with mindfulness and emotion-focused tools to address thoughts, feelings, and relationships. The pace and focus are set by the client’s goals.

Sessions emphasize clear steps and honest conversation. People who want practical strategies and a respectful listener often find this approach useful. If you are juggling caregiving, health changes, or questions about identity or relationships, Todd aims to help you make steady progress.

How these approaches work in online care

Todd uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other approaches. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help when someone is coping with chronic illness, caregiving stress, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments. It is practical for anxiety, depression, low mood, and managing stress at work or home.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients often mix elements from different methods to suit their situation.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It also makes working with a therapist across state lines or from another country possible when appropriate for licensing and logistics.
