About Diego

Diego Gumucio is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Florida. He draws on five years of clinical work to help people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, self esteem, depression, trauma, and other life challenges. Diego meets each person where they are and adapts sessions to fit immediate needs and goals.

He avoids a one-size-fits-all plan. Instead, Diego shapes each meeting around what is happening in the moment. That can mean short-term skills practice, looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, or talking through painful memories and daily stresses. Sessions are focused and practical so clients leave with something usable.

Diego uses a mix of approaches to suit different situations. He often leans on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behavior. He also brings Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas when emotion regulation, relationships, or meaning are central concerns.

Common themes he helps with include addiction, grief, parenting strain, anger, ADHD, loneliness, and issues tied to immigration or first responder work. He also supports people facing family of origin concerns, adoption and foster care questions, and co-occurring problems.

Sessions are available in English and Spanish, and he accepts clients from other countries as well. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

How these approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values and take actions that match what matters to them. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and finding direction during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and habits; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports their self-directed growth.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Diego will help explore which methods feel most useful for each person's goals, trying different tools and adjusting as progress and needs change. The focus is on practical work the client can use outside sessions as well as what comes up during meetings.

Confirm current online session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work or family, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed. Many people find that doing therapy from a convenient location helps them maintain consistency and practice new skills between meetings.
