He practices in Wisconsin and offers direct, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, depression, addiction, anger, and ADHD.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and he recognizes that courage matters. In sessions he creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where a person can talk through what’s going on.

Background and approach

He listens for realistic goals and helps clients find small, useful changes they can try between visits. Conversations focus on what matters now and what can be adjusted to make daily life easier. Tom draws on Motivational Interviewing, a conversational style that helps people sort through mixed feelings and build commitment to change.

That approach can be useful for addictions, behavior changes, and managing symptoms that get in the way of goals. He pairs that with practical problem solving and attention to emotional reactions. People who prefer clear, goal-oriented sessions tend to do well with his style.

He also works with issues related to trauma and abuse, relationship problems, caregiving stress, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life transitions. He is comfortable talking about communication, boundary-setting, and rebuilding routines. Sessions are offered in English and take place through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

He works with each person to set realistic steps and to adjust pace and focus as progress unfolds.

How Motivational Conversations and Online Sessions Work Together

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It uses open questions, reflective listening, and collaborative planning to build motivation for practical steps. This can help with addictions, making behavior changes, and sticking with new routines.

In addition to motivational work, Tom emphasizes clear goals and small experiments between sessions. He helps clients set achievable tasks and then reviews what did and didn’t work. That makes progress visible and keeps conversations focused on real-life results.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. He will listen to your goals and preferences, talk through what might help, and adjust methods as you go. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to use and how fast to move.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or when a camera isn’t practical. Live chat and text allow brief check-ins, tracking progress, or quick coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into work, school, or caregiving schedules and support consistent contact over time.
