About Thomas
Thomas "Tommy" Snyder is a Louisiana Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting pressures, or big life changes. He also works with mood disorders, ADHD, and trauma-related concerns.
Tommy uses straightforward conversation and practical exercises. He leans on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and DBT skills for managing strong emotions. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and on attachment-based ideas to improve close relationships.
Sessions are focused on what’s going wrong now and on small steps that can change daily patterns. He encourages learning new coping skills, practicing them between meetings, and noticing what makes them work. The emphasis is on clear, usable tools rather than long theory discussions.
Tommy’s background includes many years working with people facing addiction, mood instability, trauma, and the stress that comes with life transitions. He combines practical behavior change with attention to how early relationships shape reactions to stress and anger.
People who meet with him can expect direct feedback, structured skill-building, and an emphasis on habits that reduce reactivity and resentment. He invites clients to try strategies in everyday life and bring back what did and didn’t help. That makes sessions focused, grounded, and aimed at improving day-to-day functioning.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. In practice this looks like short exercises to clarify what matters and experiments to act differently despite discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thinking patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going. Clients often practice small behavior changes and tracking results between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions. It helps people see patterns in close relationships and try new ways of connecting that reduce anger and reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions can mix approaches over time as problems change and new skills are learned.
