Thomas Roberson is a counsellor with 11 years of experience who helps people untangle stress, anxiety, addiction and other painful struggles. He uses a direct, person-centred style that prioritises listening and clear thinking. Thomas is a BACP registrant, and he brings practical experience from schools, the NHS, addiction services and independent practice.

He keeps sessions straightforward and non-judgemental. He treats people as experts on their own lives and focuses on helping them hear themselves more clearly.

Background and approach

Conversations tend to be calm, grounded and paced to each person’s needs rather than rushed or didactic. Thomas has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, depression, eating and intimacy-related issues. He also supports people facing parenting strain, relationship problems, blended family matters and adoption or foster care questions.

Specific additional focuses include abandonment, attachment issues, body image and substance misuse. He draws on attachment-based, client-centred and trauma-focused approaches to make sense of difficult experiences. Sessions aim to build steadiness, reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of agency.

Thomas also speaks from lived experience of ADHD, so he is familiar with fast thoughts, emotional intensity and the need to adapt pace and structure. Outside counselling, he spends time surfing and with his two daughters. That outlook feeds into a practical, change-oriented attitude in therapy - small shifts over time that allow people to feel steadier and move forward.

How Thomas’ approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people see why they react certain ways in close connections and supports building more reliable ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of the work; the therapist listens deeply, reflects what is said and follows the client’s pace to help them find their own solutions. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at the impact of traumatic events and offers ways to process overwhelming memories so daily life becomes more manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. Thomas will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made and new issues come up.

Online therapy with Thomas uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video lets people see facial cues and build rapport, phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier for quick check-ins, while messaging or live chat can suit short daily support or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
