About Tom
Tom Broderick is a counsellor who believes people know their own stories best and already have strengths to draw on. He works in a warm, interactive way and aims to create a calm space where clients can talk about what matters to them.
Tom holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and brings three years of experience to his practice. He uses person-centred ideas as his main way of working, meeting each person without judgement and following their pace.
Background and approach
He also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused methods when these suit the issue at hand. This lets him adapt sessions to the practical needs and preferences of the person sitting with him. Tom has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
He also helps with relationship concerns, LGBT issues, grief, trauma, ADHD and workplace strain such as compassion fatigue. He describes his work as respectful of different cultures and backgrounds and treats each person as an individual. Sessions focus on what the client wants to address next.
Tom helps people identify small changes and clearer ways to cope between meetings. He emphasises collaboration and tries to keep the work simple and practical so it can fit into everyday life. For someone taking the first step, Tom offers a straightforward process to begin.
He welcomes questions about how a counsellor can help and encourages people to choose their own goals for therapy.

How Tom works online
He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and helps people try small experiments between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and practical coping strategies. Motivational interviewing is another technique he uses to help people find their own reasons for change and build on their strengths, which can help with career decisions, lifestyle changes or managing burnout.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tom will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
The original biography does not list which remote session types are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and pace to match everyday schedules and commitments.
