01About Thomes
Thomes Buchanan is a licensed professional counselor who brings four years of clinical practice to her work in Ohio. She uses a straightforward, compassionate style to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Her approach is practical and focused on what a person needs right now.
She pays attention to each person’s background and culture. That helps her tailor sessions for issues like self-esteem, grief, addiction, or coping with life changes.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and trauma or abuse. Therapy sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Thomes listens closely, helps clarify patterns, and works with clients to try new ways of responding.
She mixes skill-building and emotional processing so clients can manage intense feelings and improve daily functioning. She draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior skills, and emotionally-focused methods. These tools are used to address intimacy problems, communication breakdowns, body image concerns, and commitment or control issues.
Thomes also helps people with practical life stresses like parenting strain, caregiver burnout, chronic illness, career shifts, and blended family challenges. Her goal is to help clients develop clearer goals, better coping skills, and stronger relationships over time.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Thomes commonly uses attachment-based work, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people shift how they relate to others. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels understood and can find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical strategies to change thinking and behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Thomes will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. She collaborates on a plan and adjusts methods as needs change, so the approach fits the person rather than the other way around.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversations and practice new skills in real time. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who want ongoing support between sessions or who prefer writing to speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving schedules, or long-distance situations.
