About Justin

Justin Gaw offers straightforward counseling for people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life changes. He writes in plain terms and aims to help clients make practical shifts that fit their daily lives. Justin holds an LPC, which means he is a licensed professional counselor in Texas.

Clients can expect sessions that focus on what is happening now and what can be changed next. He uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits.

He also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, anger, and struggles with self-esteem.

Online support

How hypnotherapy, CBT, and mindfulness work online

Justin offers Hypnotherapy to help people shift habits and tap into imagery that supports change; in short guided sessions he helps clients focus attention and rehearse new responses to stress and cravings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and replace them with practical actions that reduce anxiety, depression, and panic. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that calm the body and make it easier to respond rather than react.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try an approach, and adjust methods based on what helps most. This collaborative pacing lets the client test techniques and keep what works for them.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets the therapist and client work visually and practice skills together. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can support short check-ins, homework guidance, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions, making therapy more flexible and easier to sustain.
