About Thomas

Thomas Loney is an Iowa-licensed mental health counselor with 13 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. He creates an approachable atmosphere where clients can explore thoughts and emotions and work toward clearer goals.

Background and approach

Thomas emphasizes encouragement and recognizes the courage it takes to begin therapy, offering steady support through early steps in the process.

In sessions he focuses on building trust and practical skills that clients can apply between meetings, addressing related concerns such as impulsivity, mood disorders, panic and panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and issues related to men’s and women’s mental health. His style centers on collaboration and gradual progress, with attention to motivation, self-love, and confidence.

Thomas offers services in English and accepts international clients, providing flexible formats to suit individual needs.

Evidence-Informed Techniques and Online Care



Many of Thomas's approaches draw on evidence-based techniques that teach practical skills for managing emotions and behavior. For example, cognitive-behavioral strategies help people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more balanced thinking, which can reduce anxiety, depressive symptoms, and patterns of impulsivity. Skills-based emotion regulation and behavioral activation work to increase motivation and daily functioning by developing routines and coping tools that address mood, energy, and confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Thomas partners with clients to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. He adapts methods over time, blending skill-building and exploration so clients can test what helps most in real life.

Online therapy formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, use skills between sessions, and access care from different locations, supporting progress in a way that fits each person's routine.
