More about Thomas

  • 21 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

I have been helping people achieve their therapeutic goals for over 18 years. Each person is unique, so a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy just won't do. That's why I use an integrative, therapeutic approach which is tailored to the individual and includes: Problem Solving; Structural Techniques; Inter-relational Techniques; Cognitive Techniques; Family-Of-Origin Issues and Individual Developmental Issues.

I have experience working with a variety of issues and I especially enjoy helping people manage their relationships.

You will find me to be friendly and non-judgmental, but firm in my commitment to help you strive towards your goals. Let's work together to get you on a better path so you can live your life more abundantly.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Reviewed December 2021

Thomas is almost indescribable. I gave up on therapy and any faith that was left in me. Thomas lead me back into the world of counseling and the possibility that I could find faith again. And he did this by showing a way - not pulling me into a place that fits the counselor’s agenda. It’s as if he gave me a bunch of crayons but I must draw and color the picture. My las therapist died suddenly so I was a bit closed off from therapy. Thomas helped me ease into a place that I was terrified of. I will miss him tremendously.
