About Thomas

Thomas "Tommy" Snyder is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Louisiana who draws on 24 years of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, mood disorders, ADHD, addictions, and a wide range of relationship and life-change challenges.

Background and approach

He uses a practical, strengths-oriented approach to help clients build coping skills and emotional resilience while navigating transitions and difficult circumstances. Tommy emphasizes realistic strategies that can be applied day to day and tailors his work to each persons needs.

Clients can expect an empathetic, patient clinician who balances support with structured techniques from evidence-based therapies. His work integrates cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness and acceptance strategies, and attention to attachment dynamics to address issues such as trauma, impulsivity, compulsions, depression, and compassion fatigue.

Tommy practices from Louisiana and offers services in English, accepting international clients as well. He aims to provide a steady presence while helping people clarify goals and develop workable plans for change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Virtual Care



Thomas "Tommy" Snyder commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing practical strategies to change behaviors and improve mood, which can help with anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day challenges. DBT emphasizes skill development in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which is useful for impulsivity, mood instability, and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He works together with clients to explore which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, and adjusts techniques over time so the plan stays practical and relevant to each person's life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions or when travel and timing pose challenges, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver structured therapeutic work and skill-building remotely.
