About Thomas
With 34 years of experience, he offers straightforward, calm guidance. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what steps a person can try between meetings. He values clear conversation and practical tools that can be used in day-to-day life.
His approach draws on several methods, including cognitive behavioral ideas that look at thought and behavior patterns, client-centered listening that follows the person’s pace, and techniques for processing painful memories. Thomas aims to match methods to each person’s needs rather than using a single fixed style.
People come to him for many concerns beyond stress and anxiety. These include relationship issues, parenting strain, substance concerns, sleep or eating problems, chronic illness or pain, and difficulties with self-esteem or isolation. He also works with issues tied to attachment, abandonment, and compassion fatigue.
Thomas describes therapy as a collaborative effort. He helps people set goals, try small experiments, and notice what changes. His tone is supportive and pragmatic, geared toward helping people regain a steadier day-to-day rhythm.

How chosen approaches fit into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being stuck by them. It focuses on values and small actions a person can take to move toward a life that matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to process distressing memories that can show up after trauma; it aims to reduce the intensity of those memories and the reactions they trigger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so sessions stay aligned with what the person needs.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are provided. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut commute time, or allow a shorter check-in when schedules demand it. It also makes it possible for people outside Oklahoma to connect, while the therapist and client work together to shape how sessions best fit daily life.
