About Tom

Tom Broderick is a counsellor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. He works from a person-centred stance that treats clients as the experts in their own lives. Tom uses a warm, interactive style to build trust and help people talk through what matters most to them.

He trained as an integrative counsellor in the United Kingdom and is a Registered Member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That registration is noted as BACP. Tom brings three years of experience working with a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, grief, trauma and compassion fatigue.

In sessions he blends person-centred listening with techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy when useful. He also draws on Motivational Interviewing and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns and find practical steps forward. This mix lets him tailor the work to each person’s needs.

Tom often supports people dealing with LGBT-related issues, self-esteem difficulties and life changes such as career shifts or loss. He aims to create an atmosphere where clients can speak honestly and try out new ways of coping without judgement.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Tom acknowledges that courage. He encourages anyone considering therapy to reflect on their goals and reach out when they are ready to begin.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear and helps clients clarify their own goals and values. This approach is useful for building trust and for people wanting a supportive, non-directive environment.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try out different behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change and boosts readiness to act. It is often used alongside other approaches when someone wants to make life changes such as improving wellbeing, reducing harmful patterns, or pursuing career shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tom will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and agree a way forward together, adjusting methods as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, check the platform or service for which formats are offered before booking. Confirming options will make it easier to schedule therapy around everyday life, whether you need shorter check-ins, sessions that avoid video, or timing that fits around work or family commitments.
