About Tom
Tom Broderick is a counsellor registered with the BACP who has worked in the field for three years. He helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and LGBT concerns, and supports those facing relationship strain, grief and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.
Tom uses a person-centred way of working as his main model. That means he listens first and follows what the client brings. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused techniques when these suit the situation.
In practical terms he aims to work interactively. People can expect conversations that look at thoughts, feelings and everyday habits. He helps identify small, testable changes and ways to manage stress, anger or low mood.
Tom has experience supporting people with ADHD-related concerns, bipolar mood issues, trauma and compassion fatigue. He also offers coaching-style support for career and coping-with-change challenges. He says his background includes working with people from varied cultures and backgrounds.
Sessions usually begin by clarifying goals and checking what the person needs right now. Over a few meetings he reviews which methods are helping and adjusts the approach. The booking process asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule the first session.
How his approaches are used in online sessions
Tom commonly combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and person-centred methods in online work. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and trying small behavioural experiments to see what changes. Person-centred work means the therapist listens closely and follows what the client brings, helping the person set the pace and topics.Motivational interviewing can also be used when someone wants change but feels unsure. It helps clarify goals and build reasons to try a different approach without pressure. Together these methods aim to be practical and collaborative, with the therapist and client deciding what fits best.
Clients should confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. The therapist will work with the client to set a structure that fits their goals and daily life.
