About Thomas
Thomas "Tom" Relevitch is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people talk through stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. He welcomes discussions about LGBT matters, coping with life changes and coaching-style goals. Tom aims to make the first step feel manageable and acknowledges it can be daunting to begin therapy.
Tom has worked in the UK for over ten years and brings that experience into everyday sessions. He creates a calm space where people can share thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of him rather than on jargon or rigid techniques.
Alongside client-centred work, Tom draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. He also uses solution-focused techniques to help people set short-term goals and try practical steps between meetings. These approaches are mixed to suit individual needs rather than followed as a fixed programme.
He is comfortable addressing a wide range of concerns including attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, infidelity, midlife questions and topics around kink and alternative sexual cultures. He also supports people dealing with loneliness, guilt, family tensions and questions of life purpose.
Sessions are mainly available in the middle of the day, typically between 12 noon and 5 pm GMT from Monday to Thursday. Tom accepts people in the United Kingdom and international clients, and works in English.
How Tom's approaches translate to online therapy
Tom works from a client-centred standpoint, which means sessions focus on the person’s experience and the therapist follows the lead of what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone needs a listening space to make sense of feelings or find clearer priorities.He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at repeating patterns and how past experiences can shape current reactions. This can be useful for people wanting to understand deeper relationship patterns or long-standing emotional themes. Solution-focused work is used alongside these approaches to agree short-term goals and try practical steps that can change day-to-day life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Tom will work with each person to decide what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences, and he will adapt the way he works as those needs change.
