About Thomas

Thomas Homrighaus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 24 years of experience. He works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, and relationship difficulties. He also addresses trauma, grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating issues, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and intimacy-related struggles.

Tom trained in psychology and completed postgraduate study in health psychology and behavioral medicine. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness as core tools. He also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy depending on what a person needs.

In practice he favors practical, strength-focused work. Sessions tend to identify what is getting in the way, build clearer coping skills, and test small changes that can make daily life easier. For anger this can mean learning moment-to-moment strategies, spotting patterns that lead to snapping, and practicing alternatives that reduce regret.

Tom has long experience in both individual and group settings and has supervised therapists and interns. Much of his background comes from residential programs where he worked with people from across the U.S. and abroad. That experience shaped a direct, skills-oriented approach to complex problems like trauma, process addictions, and recurring self-harm behaviors.

He currently offers counseling to mature adults, young adults, teens, and parents. Sessions focus on clear goals, measurable steps, and improving day-to-day functioning rather than abstract theory.

How sessions work

How CBT, DBT and Mindfulness translate to online work

Thomas commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments. CBT helps with anger by changing the thinking patterns that trigger reactive responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes practical skills for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, useful when anger escalates quickly.

Mindfulness Therapy focuses on noticing physical and mental signals as they happen. That practice can reduce automatic reactions and increase choices in tense moments. Tom will work collaboratively to find which mix of skills and approaches fits a client's situation and goals rather than prescribe a single method up front.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time so weekly work is more consistent. Therapists also adapt exercises for video or audio sessions, such as guided mindfulness, in-session skill practice, and homework that links directly to daily triggers and routines.
