About Thomes
Thomes Buchanan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with four years of clinical experience practicing in Ohio. She focuses on common and complex concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, self-esteem, parenting strain, and grief. Thomes lists ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, and LGBT concerns among her areas of work.
She takes a practical, person-focused approach rather than relying on jargon. Sessions tend to center on clearer communication, coping strategies, and understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. She uses talk, skill-building, and reflection to help people make changes that fit their daily life.
Her background includes work with attachment issues, abandonment, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress. She also addresses body image, chronic illness and disability, and difficulties around intimacy and commitment. Those topics often come up alongside parenting and family questions.
Thomes draws on several therapeutic approaches in her sessions, including attachment-based work, client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, and emotionally-focused methods. She explains ideas in plain language and focuses on what a person can try between sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Thomes Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they might react strongly in relationships and supports new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear strategies to test assumptions, change unhelpful thinking, and build different habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Thomes will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. She helps clients try approaches in session and adapts them based on what actually helps between meetings.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let someone avoid being on camera if that helps them engage. Ask about format options when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be scheduled to suit your routine.
