About Thomes

Thomes Buchanan is a licensed counselor who brings four years of clinical experience to her practice in Ohio. She holds LPC and LPCC credentials and works with people facing a broad range of challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, grief, trauma and addictions.

Background and approach

Her work is grounded in attention to each person's story and aims to identify practical strategies for coping and growth. Her style blends warmth with evidence-informed techniques, offering a culturally responsive perspective that honors diverse life experiences.

Thomes emphasizes building resilience and improving communication while helping clients address intimacy, career transitions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, chronic illness and pain, and a variety of family and mood-related concerns.

In sessions she draws on several therapeutic traditions to tailor interventions to individual needs, inviting collaboration and steady skill building. Thomes welcomes international clients and conducts therapy in English, providing multiple online formats to increase accessibility for those seeking support.

Approaches That Guide Online Work

Thomes Buchanan uses a mix of practical, relationship-focused methods that translate well to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and building concrete coping skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships and emotional bonds to help clients improve communication and feeling safer in close connections.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and life context in early sessions and recommend which methods or combination of methods are likely to support those goals, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Thomes is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility in how people engage. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations, while still allowing for skill practice, emotional processing, and collaborative problem solving.
