Cheryl Gomez, LICSW

Cheryl Gomez is a licensed clinician in Alabama with three years of professional experience as an LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker). She works with adults facing stress and anxiety, challenges related to addictions, and concerns about motivation, self esteem, and confidence. Cheryl also has experience supporting people living with depression and related mood difficulties.

Cheryl approaches each person as the expert of their own story and seeks to identify strengths that can be mobilized to overcome obstacles. She frames the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life as an act of courage and offers steady, empathic support throughout the therapeutic process. Her practice pays attention to how family dynamics, caregiver responsibilities, and patterns like codependency or isolation can affect well-being, and she collaborates with clients to set realistic goals and build skills for change.

Clients who choose Cheryl can expect a respectful, strengths-oriented approach aimed at increasing confidence, reducing distress, and improving daily functioning. She invites people to take up the work of change at a pace that fits their needs and priorities.

Evidence-Based Support Delivered Online

Cheryl uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills to reduce stress and manage anxiety. These approaches teach breathing, relaxation, and problem-solving tools that can help people feel steadier in day-to-day life and respond differently to worry or overwhelm.

She also applies evidence-based methods tailored to addressing addictions and to strengthening motivation and self worth. These techniques emphasize small, achievable steps and collaborative goal-setting to support recovery and build confidence over time.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Cheryl works together with each client to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative stance helps shape sessions and the pace of work so clients feel involved in decisions about their care.

Online therapy with Cheryl is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care, attend sessions from home, and access support when juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
