About Trisha
Trisha Smith-Gomes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, and ADHD-related concerns. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak openly and be heard. Trisha aims to tailor sessions to each person's needs and pace so change feels manageable rather than overwhelming.
Trisha draws on 15 years of experience to shape a collaborative, practical approach. She listens for strengths and patterns, then helps clients try simple strategies to reduce distress and increase control. Work often centers on clearer communication, better emotional regulation, and steps to improve everyday functioning.
She also supports people facing caregiver stress, social isolation, impulsivity, and questions about life purpose or self-love. Workplace issues and concerns common to young adults are part of her practice as well. Trisha is comfortable talking about parenting struggles and helping parents find ways to cope and set clear boundaries.
Sessions are guided by the client’s goals and values. Trisha avoids one-size-fits-all methods and adapts her focus based on what’s most helpful in the moment. Progress is practical - small changes that add up over time.
Trisha practices in Florida and conducts therapy in English. Prospective clients use a Start Therapy process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Trisha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people make practical changes. One common approach focuses on skill building for emotional regulation and stress management - teaching short, doable strategies that reduce anxiety and help people handle anger or overwhelm. Another approach centers on improving communication and problem solving, which is useful for parenting concerns, workplace issues, and rebuilding strained relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Trisha will listen to your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust the plan as you go. The emphasis is on what works for you and on small, measurable steps rather than a fixed program.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography did not specify them. Many people find online work lets them fit therapy into a busy day, use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce time spent traveling. A collaborative plan with a licensed professional can help make therapy practical and relevant to daily life.
