I work with women and young adults going through big life changes and stressors. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas and am registered to provide telehealth in Florida (registration TPMC2934).

My name is Thomas, and I am a Marriage and Family counselor here at Bridging Harts. My education and training have put me in a position to help guide you through your journey to finding out the answers to these questions in your life.

With more than 25 years of experience, I have worked closely with a wide range of communities across different environments including churches, behavioral health facilities, public schools, nonprofits, and foster care settings.

Have you tried therapy for anxiety or OCD and not gotten results? I can help you feel better. I have 20 years of experience treating OCD and anxiety-related disorders. I will help you get where you need to in life and improve your functioning. I lead a team of therapists under my supervision. We can help.

My life experiences contribute to my compassionate heart and deep desire to serve those who are hurting, to walk alongside others on their journey to positive emotional and mental health. Women going through a divorce, struggling with the issues of life, teenage girls hurting from negative influences in their lives, couples desiring to reconcile after infidelity or even those couples who have just drifted apart over the years looking to reconnect. All of us can benefit from talking with someone outside the emotions who can empathize yet offer wisdom and insight.

I believe that symptoms and diagnoses are signs of identity conflict and efforts to try and control situations that are outside of our control. My approach focuses on creating a therapeutic relationship to support those working towards trauma recovery, addressing dissociation, fostering personality development, emotional regulation or helping process burnout with fellow therapist and healthcare professionals.

It is common to question your decisions in life. Sometimes, it can seem like life is going so fast you find yourself feeling lost, anxious or overwhelmed. Perhaps things have gotten so tough that you feel judged, overall worthless and a burden to your friends and family. Maybe thinking about going to class, talking in front of peers, or even getting groceries creates worry that you will be rejected. Are you in so much pain that you have gotten to the point that you have considered or attempted to end your life? Do you feel like your fears have begun to take over who you are? Whether you are ready to make a change or just need someone to listen, I am here. My hope is that you will feel accepted, safe, and empowered as you begin to take your life back. Together, we will work to discover direction and meaning that will lead you towards being fulfilled and secure. Often the times in life when we face our fears we grow the most. Having support or even a sense of accountability can provide enough strength to grow and find purpose.

I believe true healing involves hard-work, a dose of self-awareness and the diligence to see oneself as being capable of it. Let me help you get to that place using congruence, unconditional positive regard and empathetic understanding. As a Client Centered Therapist, I seek to assist you with addressing the concerns, acknowledging the needs and identifying the goals specific to your overall idea of mental wellness. My experience ranges from ages 7-65+ in different levels of severity.
