More about Tom

  • 3 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am focused on a systems approach, which allows clients to explore concerns on an individual level as well as discover how interactions with others may be affecting those concerns. With a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Bachelor’s in Art Therapy from Edgewood College in Madison, WI, I am able to provide clients with a wide range of therapeutic tools from the traditional to the creative. I am dedicated to client care and have experience working with individuals, couples, families and children, specifically spending several years focusing on individuals on the autism spectrum. I truly enjoy working with clients to discover the therapeutic path that is right for each individual. I am honored to work with clients of every age who are looking to create positive change in their lives. I am specifically well-suited to work with men, individuals experiencing anxiety and/or depression, couples and families with children.

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.
