Are you exhausted and confused with your inability to be the person you want to be? Having arguments in your head about how to behave, waking up in the morning telling yourself you’ll be different today, only to fall into despair that night when you’ve failed yet again. Do you cringe and try to distract yourself when you’re reminded of certain memories? Maybe you’re losing hope that things could ever get better and feeling worthless.
Imagine having a sense of calmness, courage, clarity, and confidence throughout your days. Being at peace with yourself. How would that feel? It’s already inside of you, ready to be uncovered.

Hi, I am Tom Tirman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Therapist as well as a Licensed Clinical Addiction Therapist in Indiana, with an in-person office located in downtown Anderson. I meet with people either in-person or online. The most unique feature of what I have to offer is that my primary vocation is that of an Anglican priest, which I have been for 35 years. I make sure I disclose this right away, because many people negatively experience faith and religion (they are not the same thing) as judgmental and restricting. Others, of course, find this appealing.

As a counselor and consultant for over 20 years, I have had the privilege to work with a variety of clients in diverse settings. My licenses and certifications also reflect a diverse background and experience as a Master Addictions Counselor (MAC), Family and Marriage Therapist (LMFT), Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Master Career Counselor (NCCC, MCC) and Employee Assistance Consultant (CEAP). The primary focus of my experience has been in family, marriage, career and substance abuse counseling. In general, I use an eclectic approach to counseling but tend to emphasize cognitive-behavioral and solution focus.

Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions or struggling with mental health. The combination of these two things can affect our well-being. Participating in therapy can help to guide you through the waves of life. I often describe my approach to clients as we are riding in a boat together, you are steering the boat but I’m in the back and can help to be your guide. Together we can navigate the waters of what life brings or what has been floating to the surface that has become an obstacle.

In our work together, I will not ask you to complete worksheets, talk about breathing, or the importance of mindfulness. In fact, we are unlikely to talk about many things you can easily find through a Google search. Instead, I will ask questions to learn about you, explore various parts of yourself and your history, critical life experiences, and the relationship between them. The stress we feel and the barriers we face are often rooted to those very relationships we will explore. I am able to work with those in New York, Illinois, and Indiana.

I work with people of different backgrounds and cultures who desire a greater understanding of how to live richer, deeper lives while focusing on building more meaningful relationships with others.

My style is down-to-earth, direct, and personal. This type of therapy aims to change both our outward struggles and behaviors that can seem baffling and distressing while understanding the issues that underlie them. These deeper forces - hidden from view and rooted in our past and early relationships - can result in the greatest difficulty, and cause us to feel stuck, confused, empty, or out of control. Having the involvement and perspective of another person can help alleviate pain, shift old patterns, recover from difficulties, and lead to lasting change.

One of the most challenging things to do sometimes is to ask for help. Seeking out a therapist is no different; maybe even more challenging. In reaching out and embracing counseling, you could learn and develop new skills for dealing with stress, anxiety and depression, more effective ways of coping, and improve self-esteem.

Hi, I'm Parham, a graduate student in the School of Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin and a therapist-in-training. I support people navigating mental and physical health challenges, viewing wellbeing as a conversation between the body, mind, and rhythms of everyday life. I often think of therapy as map-making, where we name obstacles, orient ourselves, and explore paths that feel supportive and sustainable.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
