About Trisha

Trisha Smith-Gomes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and related concerns such as caregiver stress and social anxiety and phobia.

Trisha uses a collaborative, straightforward way of working. Sessions focus on understanding what is getting in the way and finding practical steps to manage it. She helps clients name patterns, develop coping strategies, and practice new skills between sessions.

Her background includes a range of settings and populations over 15 years in practice. That experience informs how she adapts tools to match a person’s daily life and responsibilities. She pays attention to communication problems, impulsivity, isolation, and workplace stress when those issues come up.

In sessions she supports parents and young adults with clear, doable techniques for emotion regulation and problem solving. She also supports people dealing with life purpose questions and building self-love in small, concrete ways. Trisha aims to move at a pace that feels manageable for each person.

People can expect straightforward conversation, goal-focused plans, and follow-up ideas to try between meetings. She offers sessions in English and does not take international clients.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions

Trisha draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and behavior change. One common approach involves learning and practicing coping strategies for anxiety and stress. These techniques teach ways to notice triggers, slow down reactions, and try different behaviors that reduce distress in everyday situations.

Another frequent focus is emotion regulation and problem-solving work. This involves breaking problems into smaller steps, trying short experiments, and building routines that reduce impulsivity and support clearer communication at home and at work. These methods help when someone is feeling overwhelmed or stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Trisha will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies based on what is working and what is not.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing practical scheduling needs during the matching questionnaire helps identify an approach and session rhythm that fit into daily life.
