About Thomas
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, and group treatment settings, and I have extensive experience working with military veterans, law enforcement, first responders, and individuals affected by post-traumatic stress. I help clients navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and anger by creating a safe, supportive, and grounded space where meaningful healing and introspection can begin.
I earned my master’s in social work from Northwest Nazarene University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based practices and client-centered care. My approach includes talk therapy, supportive services, lifestyle changes, healthy living planning, activity scheduling, outdoor engagement, and meditation to help clients reach their goals.
I look forward to meeting you and partnering with you on your path to healing. By taking this first step and scheduling an appointment, you are choosing to prioritize your emotional health and overall well-being. I am committed to helping you build resilience, discover new strengths, and move toward a healthier, more empowered version of yourself.
"As a retired Army non-commissioned officer and multiple-tour combat veteran, I relate personally to the many challenges of reintegration to the civilian world and combat-related stress."
Get to know Thomas
Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?
Following my Military service and Combat tours I was an intern at the Veterans Administration. I worked with Veterans and their families to assess and heal from the trauma of War and the related stresses of military and civilian life.
What types of clients do you work best with?
I have had many clients gain success be they veterans and their families, adolescent or elderly.
What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?
I wish that everyone knew they are not alone with their problems, everyone deserves a caring ear, listening heart and the chance to heal.
What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?
In the early stages of therapy it is important to be open and honest, to begin immediately seeking the root of the issues as well as therapies which can provide an immediate impact for the client and their loved ones.
What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?
My military experiences, my roles as a father and husband and my Christian values help me to meet people where they are coming from and be a hearing ear.
How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?
I would like clients to be met where they are in their walk towards healing.
