About Thomas

Thomas "Tom" Relevitch is a counsellor with a BACP credential and ten years of professional experience in the UK. He focuses on men's wellbeing alongside issues such as stress, anxiety, relationships and coping with major life changes. Tom aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful of the courage it takes to begin.

Tom creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings. He listens in a client-centred way and helps people name what matters to them. Sessions often cover practical coping strategies as well as deeper patterns that affect everyday life.

His work draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring themes from past relationships and life events. Tom also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable steps that make a difference quickly. Together these approaches help with issues like emptiness, guilt, shame and midlife questioning.

Tom has experience supporting people with sexual identity and alternative relationship styles, including LGBT and polyamorous concerns, and with matters such as infidelity, divorce and communication problems. He also supports men facing loneliness, life-purpose questions and cultural or multicultural stresses.

Sessions are offered in English and Tom accepts international clients. He normally has most availability between 12 noon and 5 pm GMT, Monday to Thursday. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to his availability.

How these approaches work for online therapy

Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear, and helps the person explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. This approach is useful for building trust and making sense of current struggles.

Psychodynamic therapy looks at repeating patterns that come from past relationships and life events. It helps people spot how earlier experiences shape current behaviour and feelings, which can be useful for issues like attachment, abandonment and long-standing relationship problems.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, practical changes. It helps set clear goals and identify steps that can be tried between sessions, which suits people who want quick, action-oriented progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and may combine ideas from different approaches as needed.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to meet with a therapist who works across time zones, while scheduling around typical availability such as midday to late afternoon GMT.
