About Justin
Justin Gaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people regain control when life feels out of balance. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, addictions, grief, and depression. He also supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns and those adjusting to life changes.
In sessions he uses straightforward talk and practical tools. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different, healthier behaviors.
Background and approach
He also brings elements of Jungian therapy and hypnotherapy when those approaches fit a person's goals. Justin has four years of clinical experience and aims to make therapy easy to fit into a busy life. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs.
Sessions are delivered in English and are available to people located in Texas. People who reach out can expect a collaborative, goal-focused approach. Justin helps identify patterns that create stress or anger and works with clients to build new skills for coping, communication, and self-control.
He emphasizes practical steps clients can use between sessions. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on the therapist's availability. The process is designed to be simple so people can start working on their priorities quickly.

Approaches you can use in online sessions
Justin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness approaches in online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, anger, or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practices to notice emotions and bodily sensations so people can respond rather than react.He also integrates hypnotherapy when appropriate, which involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support new ways of thinking and breaking unhelpful habits. This can be helpful for impulsivity, some types of addiction, and stress management.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques, then try methods together and adjust as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversations and skill practice, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging suits quick updates and ongoing support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy schedule.
