Thomas Homrighaus, LPC

Thomas Homrighaus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a foundation for his work. He draws on 24 years of experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and related concerns. Thomas aims for clear, practical steps people can use between sessions.

He keeps sessions straightforward and goal-oriented. He looks for patterns in thoughts and behaviors and helps clients try different coping skills. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies are used to build small, manageable changes that add up over time.

Thomas has a background in psychology with graduate study that emphasized clinical work and health psychology. He has worked in residential settings, supervised other counselors, and trained staff. That experience shaped his focus on hands-on skills and real-world problem solving.

In sessions he focuses on strengths, values, and building self-respect. He helps people address issues such as obsessions, compulsions, phobias, process addictions, self-harm, and trauma-related concerns using practical exercises and discussion. He also supports people dealing with parenting stress, relationship and intimacy difficulties, eating and sleep problems, and mood conditions like bipolar disorder.

Thomas offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging options. Sessions run on a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. He works in English and practices from Texas.

How online CBT and mindfulness work in sessions

Thomas commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and then test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, and many stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy borrows practical skills from mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance to manage intense feelings and reduce impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods in session, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This collaboration lets clients shape sessions around their needs and preferences rather than following a fixed script.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets people use visual cues and role-play skills, phone works well when a quick check-in or lower bandwidth is needed, live chat is useful for short focused exchanges, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
