More about Tomas

  • 35 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW-R

My name it Tomas Gonzalez and I am a licensed bilingual clinical social worker with 35 years of experience. I have worked at both inpatient and outpatient clinical centers with adults, adolescents and children within the elementary, intermediate and high school settings. I have worked with clients who presented with depression, anxiety, ADHD, parenting problems, parents and children of divorce, marital challenges and various adjustment issues. I am empathetic, respectful and sensitive when working with clients. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, systems theories, and transpersonal perspectives.

During the course of my profession, I've come to appreciate the enormous amount of courage (in clients) to change and better their lives and consequently, the lives of others. Within a supporting relationship and environment, counseling goals will be mutually developed to effectively meet these endeavors.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
