About Thomes

She uses methods that help people understand emotions and change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and shift thinking that feeds anxiety and depression. Attachment-based ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and communication in relationships. Therapy also draws on client-centered and emotion-focused practices to honor each person's experience.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills may be added for emotion regulation and coping with intense feelings. The overall tone is calm, respectful, and collaborative. Thomes often helps people facing career stress, grief, addiction struggles, and life transitions like separation or caregiving changes.
She also supports concerns such as body image, parenting strain, and chronic illness adjustments. Work with her blends short-term skill building and longer-term emotional work, shaped around what each person needs.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current closeness and trust. This approach helps people who struggle with connection, fear of abandonment, or communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It provides clear steps to change anxious or depressive thinking and build better daily habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide whether attachment ideas, CBT, or a mix of methods will fit best and change the plan as needed.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for skill practice while phone calls can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, and between-session support. These formats give flexibility so therapy can fit work, caregiving, or other life demands.
