Receive a single object of a class using JSON and parsing to java with GSON

I have a webService in PHP and MySQL that sends me a JSON with the data I need. The problem is that in the android activity I have always used this code to pair the JSON:

Gson gson = new Gson();
p = gson.fromJson(result, new TypeToken<List<Persona>>(){}.getType());

And that is very useful when the JSON contains several objects of the class, in this case Person, but I will always receive a single object from the Person class, so I use this code:

Gson gson = new Gson();
p = gson.fromJson(result, new TypeToken<Persona>(){}.getType());

and it gives me the following error:

Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was BEGIN_ARRAY at line 1 column 2

PS: if I use the first formula, it gives me the error:

java.util.ArrayList can not be cast

What is the correct way to manage JSONs with GSON? Thank you very much.

If what you receive is just an object (instead of an array of objects) then to decode the json it would be:

Persona persona = gson.fromJson(result, Persona.class);

Note: beware that an array of a single object is still an array.
