Tommy Fletcher is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 10 years of counseling experience. He works with adults and teens on common challenges like stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship strain, and self esteem. He also helps people facing grief, career changes, eating and sleeping concerns, and issues connected to trauma and abuse.
Tommy frames clients as the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that keep problems going and trying practical steps to shift those patterns. He aims for clear, doable strategies rather than jargon-heavy explanations.
His background includes many roles in social work going back to 1987, with extensive experience in the legal system. That experience informs a practical, down-to-earth style and comfort with complex or crisis-related situations. He holds LICSW and LCSW credentials in Washington and New Mexico, respectively.
Tommy uses several evidence-based approaches to guide sessions, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. He blends techniques to match what each person needs and prefers.
Scheduling is available day and evening Monday through Thursday. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability. Tommy encourages people to take the first step and recognizes that reaching out can take courage.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low self esteem, and getting unstuck from avoidance patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thinking and habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people recognize emotional patterns in relationships and builds new ways to connect and respond to feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best. That choice is based on your goals, current struggles, and what feels most useful in early sessions.
Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows for daytime or evening scheduling that may be harder to manage with in-person visits. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they work with your schedule and needs.
