About Diego
Diego Gumucio is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Florida. He brings five years of clinical experience helping people address stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other struggles. Diego works with English and Spanish speakers and accepts international clients.
He takes a flexible, person-focused approach. Sessions are tailored to what is happening for the client right now rather than a single fixed method.
How Diego works
Diego listens for each person's priorities and adapts his style to match their needs and goals. In session he combines practical skills and reflective conversation. That can mean learning simple tools to manage overwhelming feelings, trying new ways to handle relationships, or talking through painful memories at a steady pace.
He uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and other approaches to fit the person in front of him. Diego also focuses on life events that often come together, such as addiction and mood concerns, immigration-related stress, attachment and family of origin issues, grief, and caregiver fatigue.
He helps people untangle those overlapping problems so they can make clearer choices and feel more capable day to day. He invites clients to be active in the process and to set practical goals. Sessions can be a place to learn new habits, rehearse conversations, and try different responses to old patterns.
The aim is steady progress toward the life someone wants to lead.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that move someone toward a meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, depression, and persistent stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for mood concerns, anxious thinking, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and a respectful therapeutic relationship so clients can find their own solutions and build self-trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Diego will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. He often mixes techniques so sessions stay relevant and useful as circumstances change.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different days and routines. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on a busy day. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, tracking progress, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and travel.
