Texas Marriage and Family Therapist

Licensed Professional Counselor


Hi, I'm Tommy,

I am a dedicated therapist passionate about empowering couples and families to overcome life's challenges and discover true connection and understanding in their relationships. I help individuals wanting to work through relational blocks and better the relationships in their lives.


I specialized in marriage and family therapy because I believe that our relationships are one of the core aspects of our lives. When our relationships are not working, it's hard to be okay.


I use a systemic client-centered approach that focuses on identifying all areas of your life and how they are contributing to where you are now. We will take a deep dive into the blocks that are keeping you from the relationships you want to have. I use several modalities to help improve communication and connection, including Attachment-based models, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Gottman Method.


Couples:

I am passionate about helping couples build healthy and fulfilling relationships that are rooted in love, trust, and mutual respect. Whether you are navigating the challenges of pre-marital preparation or seeking guidance to strengthen your existing partnership. I focus on effective communication, conflict resolution, and nurturing emotional connections. Together, we will work towards building a strong foundation for a thriving and fulfilling relationship.


Families:

Family relationships can be hard to navigate. Perhaps you want to change your relationship with a parent now that you are an adult or want to find healing in your family relationships. I am here to help you navigate in a way that moves you forward and find ways to maintain those relationships.


I understand that family dynamics can be complex and overwhelming at times. I offer support and guidance to families dealing with a wide range of challenges, including parenting struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication breakdowns. I help families find effective solutions, improve understanding, and create a harmonious home environment.


Are you worried about your child or teenager, looking for ways to help them and connect with them? I help families navigate symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other behavioral or mood concerns. It's hard being a parent in today's world.


I am here to help.

I completed my undergraduate studies at the United States Naval Academy and served in the military for five years. I also earned an M.Ed. in Montessori Studies at Loyola University.
