Samuel Gaspard, LPC

Samuel Gaspard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on stress and anxiety. He speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable. He welcomes conversations about worry, low mood, and daily pressures that feel overwhelming.

Samuel draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy as a guiding lens. He also uses ideas from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape practical steps. Sessions tend to focus on skills you can try between meetings and small, realistic goals for the week.

In prior community mental health work he worked with youth, adolescents, and adults, supporting people in at-risk situations. That background shaped how he approaches issues like anger, self-esteem, motivation, and caregiver stress. He emphasizes a straightforward, nonjudgmental tone in sessions.

Samuel listens for patterns that keep problems going, like unhelpful thinking or habits that reduce motivation. He then helps people test small changes and notice what works. He also pays attention to relationships and attachment concerns when they matter to the issue at hand.

People who come to Samuel can expect practical strategies and a supportive companion through change. He frames progress as steady steps rather than sudden fixes. If you want to begin, he asks clients to be curious and willing to try new ways of handling stress and anxiety.

CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused methods for online work

Samuel uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy as a primary lens and blends in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. DBT helps people build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to manage strong feelings and improve reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and short-term goals to create noticeable change quickly.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Samuel will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what fits the person's life and priorities.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when appropriate, and reduce the need to travel. Many people find that doing skills practice between meetings translates well to everyday life when guided by a licensed professional.
