Thomas "Tom" Relevitch uses a client-centred approach to make conversations simple and practical. He meets people where they are and focuses on what matters most now. Tom is based in the United Kingdom and has a BACP credential.

He has worked in the field for 10 years. In sessions he helps people talk through stress and anxiety and the practical effects these bring. He also supports people dealing with relationship concerns, LGBT matters and big life changes.

Background and approach

Tom pays attention to how attachment and feelings of abandonment shape current patterns. Tom blends psychodynamic ideas with solution-focused methods to keep therapy grounded and goal-oriented. That means looking at recurring patterns while also finding steps that bring relief.

He will work with clients to set clear, manageable goals and revisit them as progress is made. People who come to him for coaching or counselling can expect a respectful, non‑judgemental space. He aims to make the first steps feel easier and to treat each conversation as part of a longer plan.

Practical skills and gentle reflection often sit side by side in his work. His wider interests include communication problems, intimacy and alternative sexual cultures, polyamory and multicultural concerns. He also supports men facing midlife questions, people coping with guilt or shame, and those working through separation or infidelity.

Tom usually schedules most appointments between 12 noon and 5 pm GMT from Monday to Thursday, and he welcomes people from the UK and internationally.

Approach-led online counselling that fits your life

Tom draws on client-centred work and solution-focused therapy to keep online sessions practical and people-led. Client-centred therapy means sessions follow your priorities, with the counsellor listening and reflecting to help you find your own answers. Solution-focused therapy focuses on small, achievable steps and on what changes will make a difference soon. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tom will talk with you about goals, try different ways of working, and adjust the approach based on what helps most. Together you can decide whether to spend more time exploring past patterns or on short-term strategies for immediate relief. Online sessions offer real flexibility. Video calls let you see each other and work in a conversational way, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier for a quick check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit people who prefer shorter, written exchanges or who want to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, travel or other commitments.
