About Ross
Ross Thompson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Texas. He has worked in the field since 2008 and brings 17 years of clinical experience to his practice. He focuses on stress and anxiety among many other concerns and aims to build a cooperative, respectful working relationship with each person who reaches out.
Ross favors a client-centered style. He listens to what matters to the client and shapes sessions around their goals.
Background and approach
He also draws from solution-focused and narrative methods to help people spot patterns and try practical next steps. Mindfulness and attention to the mind-body connection are part of his approach. He may suggest simple mindfulness practices and lifestyle adjustments to support mood, sleep, and stress management.
These tools are used alongside conversation to create sustainable change. Ross has worked with a wide range of issues over his career, including relationships, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues related to self-esteem. He also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, codependency, panic attacks, and challenges tied to identity and intimacy.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, and he frames work as a collaboration. He prioritizes helping clients recognize their strengths and build lasting skills so they can manage future challenges independently.
Approach and online options for anxiety and stress
Ross often blends client-centered work with mindfulness practices and solution-focused techniques. Client-centered therapy means sessions start with the client's concerns and goals; the therapist listens closely and shapes the work around what matters most. Mindfulness involves short, practical exercises that build awareness of thoughts and sensations to reduce reactivity and support sleep and anxiety management. Solution-focused work targets clear, achievable steps that a person can try between sessions to reduce stress and notice progress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Ross works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. Together they set goals, try approaches, and adjust the plan based on what helps most in daily life.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide a way to check in between sessions or to use brief, written support when that fits a schedule. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and to keep regular momentum toward goals.
