About Auslyn
Auslyn Thomas is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Tennessee who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and stress. She takes a warm, down-to-earth approach and builds on the strengths people already bring. Her style is interactive and nonjudgmental so clients can explore practical steps forward.
She has five years of direct clinical experience as a therapist and broader experience in mental health work. That background includes work in community, residential, and juvenile justice settings.
Background and approach
Those roles exposed her to crisis intervention and a range of mood and behavior concerns. In sessions she uses a mix of approaches to fit each person. Techniques come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and client-centered methods.
She focuses on what will help a person in their day-to-day life. Auslyn helps with a wide set of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, panic and anxiety, anger, grief, self-esteem, and parenting stress. She also supports people facing chronic illness, body image worries, relationship and intimacy issues, and career or financial strain.
She offers work that is practical and goal-oriented while keeping sessions collaborative. People can expect clear steps to try between meetings and chances to adjust what isn’t working. Her aim is to help clients create a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then clarify values and take small steps toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that uses structured processing to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make the most sense for their goals and preferences. Plans can be adjusted over time so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions can be easier when a camera isn’t wanted or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins possible between sessions or a way to have shorter, more frequent contact. These options aim to increase flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy going amid busy schedules or unexpected life events.
