About Verdale
In sessions he typically begins with a brief personal background, then listens to the client's story to build rapport and gather information. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical steps toward clearer goals. He also addresses issues like infidelity, jealousy, veteran and armed forces concerns, multicultural matters, mood, anger, and substance use.
Dr. Goins offers individual work and life coaching as part of his practice. He emphasizes helping people develop coping skills to reduce or manage troubling symptoms. Sessions aim to combine practical strategies with short-term goal setting.
His background outside therapy includes teaching Tae Kwon Do, Tang Soo Do, and Hapkido and playing the guitar. That blend of structured practice and creative interest shows up in how he plans sessions and homework.
People who want clear steps, focused problem solving, and help managing everyday stress may find his approach fits. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and insurance arrangements when they start the intake process.

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
Dr. Goins uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thought that feed anxiety and stress. CBT breaks those patterns into small steps you can practice between meetings to reduce symptoms and handle triggers more easily. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying what is already working and building short-term goals to move forward quickly.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That means adjusting techniques and homework based on what helps the client reach their goals.
Because the profile does not list session formats explicitly, confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick review is needed. It can also let people focus on skill practice between sessions and use structured exercises during meetings. Licensed professionals tailor the blend of CBT and solution-focused steps so sessions match real-life demands and goals.
