About Tom
Tom Broderick is a counsellor who believes people know their own stories and bring strengths to face hard times. He offers a warm, interactive style and focuses on building a trusting space where clients can talk through what matters to them. He bases his work on Person-Centred theory, using it as his main model while drawing on other methods when helpful.
Tom adapts his approach to each person's needs rather than applying one fixed method to everyone.
Background and approach
This keeps sessions practical and focused on the client’s goals. Tom has three years' experience and works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression. He also supports people with self-esteem, relationship issues, bereavement and the effects of trauma and abuse.
He has experience with LGBT matters, ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, anger and career-related stress. Sessions are conducted in English and Tom offers therapy to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. He is a registered member of the BACP, which is noted as his professional body, and brings that professional framework into his practice.
Tom aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting. He listens without judgement and helps people find small, manageable ways to make change. He encourages practical conversations and will work with clients to decide the pace and focus of therapy.
How Tom blends approaches for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and supports the person to find their own answers. This is useful when someone needs space to process feelings or rebuild confidence.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It offers practical tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, stress and low mood.
Tom will work collaboratively to find the right mix of approaches for each person. He discusses goals and preferences early on and adjusts methods as therapy progresses. Figuring out what fits is part of the therapeutic process rather than a one-time decision.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy lives or those who cannot attend in person. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options help maintain continuity of care and make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family and travel commitments.
