About Samuel
Samuel Gaspard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. He works with adults who face stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. He also addresses issues such as communication problems, control and impulsivity, isolation, and workplace concerns.
Samuel draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. In sessions he helps people name what triggers their anger and then practices concrete skills to respond differently. Conversations focus on practical steps people can use between meetings to reduce reactivity and manage stress.
He has prior work in community mental health settings where he supported at-risk youth, adolescents, and adults. That background informed how he structures clear, skills-based sessions and short-term problem solving. Samuel also has additional training experiences listed in his background that influence his approach.
Sessions tend to center on skill practice, brief experiments, and setting small goals that are realistic for daily life. Samuel emphasizes straightforward strategies - for example breathing and grounding techniques, thought tracking, and small behavior changes - alongside tracking progress over time.
People who come with frustration at work, snapping at loved ones, or building resentment often leave with a clearer plan. Samuel works collaboratively to identify next steps and then practices them in session so people can try them between meetings.
How sessions work
How DBT, CBT and Solution-Focused work online
Samuel integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which focuses on emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills useful for managing anger and strong feelings. DBT sessions often include practicing specific skills during and between meetings to reduce impulsive reactions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against reality. CBT work commonly involves tracking thoughts, trying brief behavioral experiments, and using small homework tasks to shift patterns that feed anxiety and anger.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on concrete short-term goals and on what changes would look like day-to-day. This approach helps people set small, achievable steps so progress is measurable and immediate.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with clients to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
