About Thomas
Thomas Homrighaus is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with 24 years of experience. He blends cognitive behavioral tools with mindfulness and solution-focused work to help people manage strong emotions and make practical changes. Thomas keeps sessions straightforward and goal-oriented so people can see progress in day-to-day life.
He trained in psychology, earning both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree with a clinical emphasis, and pursued post-graduate study in health psychology and behavioral medicine.
Background and approach
That background informs how he links thoughts, habits, and physical reactions when addressing problems like anxiety, depression, and anger. Thomas uses plain, strength-based language in sessions. He helps people identify values and personal strengths, set concrete steps, and build skills to handle stress, cravings, or intense feelings.
He also draws on motivational interviewing techniques to support change when people feel stuck. Over two decades he has worked in residential settings, leading groups, providing individual counseling, supervising therapists, and training staff. That experience shaped his practical approach to coping skills, relapse prevention, and managing compulsive behaviors.
People come to him for a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma, grief, sleep problems, eating concerns, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. He offers clear, actionable plans and helps clients track small wins as part of longer-term growth.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Thomas uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into clear steps, so clients learn new ways to respond to stress, anxiety, anger, or compulsive urges.He also draws on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness practices to teach emotional regulation and present-moment awareness. DBT-style skills help reduce reactivity and improve distress tolerance, while mindfulness exercises support calmer attention and better sleep.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick or adapt methods based on their goals, strengths, and daily life. That means adjusting tools and pacing so strategies fit what a person actually wants to change.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy work and skill practice, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, and text or chat is good for quick check-ins or brief support between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and travel while still using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness techniques.
