About Gregory
Gregory Gomez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California. He frames therapy as a straightforward space to talk about hard things and to find small, practical steps forward. Gregory greets each person with calm and direct attention and invites clear conversations about what matters most to them.
Gregory trained in psychology at California State University Dominguez Hills and completed a master’s in psychology at Brandman University with an emphasis in Marriage and Family and Professional Clinical Counseling.
How Gregory works
He has been practicing in mental health for 11 years and has experience helping people recovering from substance use with co-occurring conditions. He also has experience supporting people in the LGBTQ community and working with older adults and couples in past roles. In sessions he focuses on problem-solving and learning new skills that make everyday life easier.
He uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and from dialectical behavior therapy to build emotion regulation skills. He also draws on EMDR for trauma-related concerns and the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a focus. Gregory describes therapy as a collaborative process.
He helps people set clear goals, try practical strategies between sessions, and track progress over time. His approach is steady and goal-oriented while still valuing the person’s pace and comfort. He practices in California and conducts sessions in English.
To begin, a simple intake step helps match priorities and plan follow-up sessions.

Online support options
Using practical approaches online
Online sessions with Gregory draw on evidence-based methods tailored to the person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, often useful for strong emotions and relationship challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used when past trauma or upsetting memories are getting in the way of daily life and can help reduce the intensity of those memories.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gregory will collaborate with each person to review their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring, then suggest one or more methods to try. The treatment plan can change as progress unfolds, with techniques adjusted to what feels most helpful.
Session logistics and formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in conversation-based sessions, and the focus remains on practical skills and steady progress rather than theory alone.
