About Jose
Jose Gomez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with ten years of clinical experience. He focuses on clear, practical strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, trauma, and depression. Jose speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions straightforward and approachable.
He uses a client-centered style that starts with listening. Conversations are guided by each person's goals and lived experience. From there he draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping skills.
Background and approach
When emotions run intense, Jose incorporates dialectical behavior ideas to help regulate feelings and manage impulses. He also uses mindfulness practices to improve focus, reduce reactivity, and strengthen acceptance of hard moments. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change or stuck in mixed feelings.
Jose tailors the plan to what the client finds most useful. That might mean short practical exercises, talking through setbacks, or setting small, measurable goals for daily life. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and steady support through the process.
People come with a wide range of concerns including career stress, ADHD-related challenges, mood disorders, obsessive or compulsive behaviors, relationship patterns like codependency, and substance use. Jose aims to help people build skills that work in real life and fit into busy schedules.
Practical therapy methods for online care
Jose commonly uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior ideas in online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a plan around each person's goals, which can help people feel heard and understood. CBT looks at how thoughts link to feelings and actions and teaches step-by-step skills to change patterns that cause distress. DBT-style strategies teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier ways to manage strong urges and impulsive behavior.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jose will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit into everyday life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing skill practice, or trouble-shooting between longer sessions. These options aim to make it easier to keep therapy consistent amid work, family, or school demands.
