I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 12 years of experience working with clients as they navigate life's challenges including changes in health, relationship issues, work stress, and caregiving. The majority of my work has centered around health psychology and helping clients achieve their personal goals for health and wellness.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and solution-focused therapy. But I believe in tailoring the therapy experience to the unique needs and goals of each client. Research shows that the most critical component of successful therapy is the strength of the therapeutic relationship. I therefore endeavor, first and foremost, to develop a positive, collaborative relationship where you feel understood and confident that we are moving in a direction that meets your needs.
Just by taking these first few steps to get connected with support, you are already doing a lot to get you closer to where you want to be. Great job!

Great fit.

Thomas has tremendously helped me. I never thought I was going to need a therapist until I had a mental breakdown and seeked help. In a short period of time we’ve dug deep and brought several things to surface. I look forward to continuing to talk with Thomas to truly understand my self and become a mentally strong.

Thomas has gone to great lengths to reassure me and help me think through a period of crisis in my life. He's been kind, considerate, and very flexible working with me despite my chaotic work schedule.
