About Trisha
Trisha Smith-Gomes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and ADHD-related concerns. She aims to create a space where clients feel heard and can speak honestly without fear of judgment. Trisha uses a warm, supportive manner and moves at a pace that feels right for each person.
She focuses on practical tools and real-life coping strategies. Sessions look at what is getting in the way, strengthen existing resources, and build steps toward change.
How Trisha works
Trisha works to tailor each plan to a person's goals, strengths, and day-to-day reality. Over 15 years of clinical experience inform her work. That background includes helping with caregiver stress, communication problems, impulsivity, and isolation or loneliness.
She also addresses life purpose, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, workplace issues, and challenges common to young adults. Her style is collaborative. She listens first, then helps people try techniques that fit their needs.
The emphasis is on practical progress rather than strict formulas. Sessions are conducted in English and are offered from Florida. To begin, people select the Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
Costs vary with location and are handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Trisha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she employs involves skills training to manage strong emotions and impulsivity by teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior strategies that can reduce reactivity in daily life. This helps with anger, emotional regulation, and impulsive actions.Another approach centers on building coping strategies for anxiety and stress. This method breaks problems into small steps, practices new responses, and helps people try different ways of handling worry and social fears. It is useful for social anxiety, workplace stress, and general anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Trisha will learn about your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. The decisions are collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to keep things practical and relevant.
Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering ways to continue progress between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so skills transfer into everyday routines.
