About Thomas
Thomas "Tommy" Snyder is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Louisiana with 24 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, addiction concerns, mood disorders, and life changes.

In therapy he guides clients through setting realistic goals, practicing new responses to stress, and tracking how small changes affect mood and relationships. He teaches concrete strategies for sleep, impulse control, and handling triggers from trauma or loss.
People who want straightforward, skills-focused work may find his style useful. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Before booking, confirm the current session options available to match your needs.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it focuses on actions that reflect the client's values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and codependency-related patterns where worry or people-pleasing get in the way of chosen actions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing compulsive or impulsive behaviors.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationships shape reactions today and helps people try different ways of relating and setting boundaries. This can be helpful for intimacy issues, attachment struggles, and communication problems.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and past attempts to find methods that fit. Sessions can mix approaches so clients can practice skills and reflect on how patterns show up in relationships.

Licensed professionals typically adjust pacing and homework to match how clients live and work.
