About Thomas
Thomas Homrighaus is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 24 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, LGBT issues, relationships, family matters, intimacy-related problems, eating and sleeping issues, anger, self-esteem, mood disorders, and attention concerns. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy in his work.
He trained in psychology, earning both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree with a clinical emphasis. He also completed postgraduate study in health psychology and behavioral medicine with attention to the mind-body connection. That academic background informs how he combines thought-focused techniques with attention to behavior and coping skills.
Tom has long experience delivering individual counseling and group work, and he has supervised therapists and interns. Much of his background was in residential settings where he worked with people from across the United States and other countries. He also provided training for staff in those programs.
In practical terms his sessions emphasize problem-solving and skill building. He draws on CBT to identify thinking and behavior patterns. He uses DBT and mindfulness to teach distress tolerance and emotional regulation skills. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods guide goal setting and short-term changes.
Clients who choose him can expect straightforward, skills-based work that looks at present problems and practical steps forward. Before a first session he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire so scheduling can begin.

How his approaches translate to online work
Thomas uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments that can be done between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness; these lessons are taught in short exercises and practice tasks. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve present-moment focus.Choosing the right method is part of the work. Thomas will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. He frames treatment as a practical process of selecting skills and strategies to try, then adjusting based on what helps.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a break, or avoiding travel time for an appointment. Online sessions also allow practice of skills in day-to-day settings and make it possible to follow up with focused homework between meetings.
