Justin Gaw, LPC

Justin Gaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress and anxiety find clearer footing. He offers direct, practical support for common struggles like depression, anger, grief, and coping with life changes. His tone is straightforward and goal-focused to help people move forward step by step.

Justin uses methods from cognitive behavioral work to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. He also draws on Jungian ideas about meaning and patterns, and incorporates mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. These approaches are used together to address issues such as panic attacks, social anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Over four years of clinical practice inform his methods and decisions in sessions. He applies what fits each person rather than using the same plan for everyone. Sessions are paced to match the client’s needs and the problem at hand.

Justin also supports people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, ADHD, and relationship or family tensions. He works with concerns like process addiction, impulsivity, guilt and shame, and communication problems.

People who reach out can expect clear goals, practical strategies, and moments that look at deeper meaning and patterns. To begin, clients use the site’s match process and schedule a time that works for them.

How Justin’s approaches translate to online therapy

Justin often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify thoughts and habits that keep stress and anxiety active, then tests small behavior changes to see what helps. He also brings Jungian ideas into sessions to look at recurring life patterns and personal meaning, which can help when people feel stuck.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to decide whether more behavioral work, mindfulness practice, or exploration of deeper themes feels most useful. Goals and methods are adjusted together as the work progresses.

Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow quieter check-ins that don't require travel, or let someone choose a shorter format for a quick follow-up. Licensed professionals can adapt tools like guided mindfulness exercises, thought-record work, and meaning-focused conversation to remote sessions to help people manage stress and anxiety and practice new responses in daily life.
