About Diego
Diego Gumucio is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Florida with five years of experience. He works with people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, addictions, and many everyday struggles. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and international clients are accepted.
Diego uses straightforward, goal-oriented work. He focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits and testing different responses. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered methods, and existential ideas as tools to work through problems.
In sessions he helps people identify what keeps problems going. That can mean tracking thought patterns, learning practical coping skills, or practicing ways to tolerate strong feelings. He also spends time on communication, impulse control, sleep problems, and substance-related issues when those come up.
Diego pays attention to context. He will look at family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, immigration-related stress, first responder strain, and how multiple problems interact. He works with grief, guilt, shame, and the isolation that follows major life events.
People can expect direct, concrete suggestions and exercises to try between meetings. The aim is to build small, manageable changes that can improve day-to-day functioning. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Diego integrates approaches for online sessions
Diego commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on practical exercises, tracking patterns, and choice-driven homework that can fit into everyday routines.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which centers on noticing inner experiences and choosing values-based action. ACT can be useful for coping with anxiety, depression, and situations that feel stuck. Client-Centered Therapy is part of his work as well, meaning he listens and follows the client's priorities while offering reflective feedback and support.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Diego will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that match the situation. That makes treatment collaborative rather than a fixed plan.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow practical exercises to be done where the client lives. A brief phone check-in can be useful for quick adjustments, while longer video meetings allow for skills practice and detailed discussion.
