About Justin
Justin Gaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and related concerns. He speaks plainly and works to create practical steps people can try between sessions. Justin aims to make the therapy process straightforward for someone who is worried and overwhelmed.
He uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and Jungian therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Mindfulness techniques are included to teach simple ways to reduce worry in the moment. Hypnotherapy is also part of his toolkit and is used as an option for people who respond well to guided relaxation and imagery. Justin has four years of counseling experience and holds the LPC credential.
He sees concerns that often come with anxiety, including panic, social phobia, and stress-related problems. He also works with issues like depression, grief, anger, addiction, ADHD, and struggles with self-esteem. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps that fit a person's daily life.
People can expect practical strategies, some talk-based exploration of patterns, and exercises to try between meetings. The overall aim is to reduce distress and build skills for coping with change. He offers sessions in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Online formats are used to keep therapy flexible for people with busy schedules or limited time for travel.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Justin commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and test small behavior changes. CBT focuses on practical steps you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety and change patterns that keep problems going.He also draws on Jungian ideas to explore personal meaning and patterns that show up across relationships and life stages. That work can help people understand deeper themes and shift long-standing habits. Mindfulness therapy is used to teach simple attention and breathing exercises that reduce immediate worry and increase calm in daily moments.
Choosing which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try techniques in session, and adjust methods based on how the person responds. This collaborative process helps find a workable mix of tools rather than one fixed method.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions are useful when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can fit into a busy day and work well for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules while still using the chosen therapeutic methods.
