About Tommy
Tommy Fletcher is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, and low self-esteem. He works with adults and teens on issues such as addiction, grief, eating and sleeping problems, and codependency. Tommy writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.
He draws on ten years of recent clinical experience and earlier social work roles going back to 1987. That background includes work in the legal system and a range of counseling settings. Tommy believes clients are the experts on their own stories and helps them build on existing strengths to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
In sessions he uses methods that emphasize values, present-moment awareness, emotion work, and skills practice. He blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral techniques and client-centered listening to tailor each session. For people feeling stuck by old patterns, he offers clear tools to try in real life.
Tommy aims to make the first steps straightforward. He offers day and evening appointments Monday through Thursday and encourages clients to take scheduling as a collaborative decision. He asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire so sessions can focus on what matters to them from the first meeting.
Tommy holds licensure as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Mexico and Washington. He provides services in English and works with people navigating life change, relationship concerns, identity issues, and traumatic experiences.
Using ACT, CBT, and Client-Centered Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small steps toward them. It helps people who feel stuck by unhelpful thoughts or avoidance behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers specific exercises to change patterns that worsen anxiety or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building trust so clients feel understood and can explore their choices.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tommy will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning may include trying a mix of techniques until something feels useful.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use tools like guided exercises and worksheets between meetings so progress continues outside the session.
