Getting to know David Gomez
*This provider does not accept any Medicaid or Medicare plans*
I walk alongside clients as they navigate stress, tough emotions, and relationship struggles, offering a safe space free of judgment. My direct yet supportive approach blends straight talk, humor, and empathy to help you feel grounded and confident as we explore challenges, highlight strengths, and create lasting change.
I help clients work through life’s challenges-stress, difficult emotions, relationship struggles, and finding balance-by combining straight talk, active listening, and accountability in a supportive space. Calm, curious, and approachable, I create sessions where you can be honest, explore feelings, and try new approaches without judgment. With warmth and practical guidance, I aim to help you feel more confident, capable, and hopeful about the future. I often bring humor and real-world perspective into sessions, helping you feel at ease from the very first conversation.
If you’ve been hesitant about therapy, I offer a straightforward, caring approach to help you face challenges, build confidence, and make real progress. My style is warm, direct, and empowering, creating a space where you can be honest, grow, and feel supported every step of the way.
David Gomez has a Masters in Counseling from Pace University. David is a Mental Health Counselor with Limited Permit (MHC-LP #18-P133654-01) in New York at Cerebral. Supervised by Tyshauna White, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW #093800).
What should a new client know about working with you?
Growing up with a brother diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder taught David early on how important it is for people to feel seen, heard, and understood—especially when the world doesn’t always make space for them. That experience inspired him to pursue this work and continues to shape how he shows up: with warmth, patience, humor, and genuine curiosity. Sessions with David are collaborative, safe, and judgment-free, where clients can bring all parts of themselves and feel truly supported. He uses straightforward, down-to-earth language and real-world analogies to help clients reflect, challenge patterns, and grow at their own pace. His hope is that every client leaves therapy feeling more at home in themselves, more empowered to make choices aligned with their values, and more connected to the life they want to create.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I bring authenticity, humor, and active listening to every session, creating a safe space where my clients feel truly heard and understood. I take a collaborative, goal-oriented approach, drawing on cognitive behavioral therapy, behaviorism, and motivational interviewing to help clients gain clarity, build practical skills, and create lasting change. Grounded in empathy and openness, I balance directness with warmth to empower clients to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.
