About Tom
Tom Broderick is a UK counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He has three years of professional experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD and a range of life changes.
His core approach is person-centred therapy, which means he starts by listening and aims to understand each person's experience. He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques where they fit the client's goals. Sessions aim to be interactive and straightforward rather than full of jargon.
Tom describes his style as approachable and practical. He focuses on recognising a person's existing strengths and using those to manage difficult moments. That can look like talking through patterns, trying short exercises, or setting small, manageable goals between sessions.
People come to him for relationship strain, grief, trauma and work-related stress as well as questions about identity and LGBT issues. He aims to help individuals build clearer ways of responding when anger or frustration arise, without promising a quick fix.
He welcomes people from varied cultural backgrounds and works with each person as an individual. If someone is thinking about starting, he asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see how the work might fit their needs.
How sessions work
Approach and working online
Tom uses person-centred work alongside cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience, which can help when anger or overwhelm feel hard to talk about. CBT looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to try between sessions, useful for managing stress and anxiety.He also uses motivational interviewing to help clarify goals and increase willingness to change unhelpful habits. That approach is conversational and aims to build motivation rather than push for immediate change. Together these methods give space for both talking through problems and testing small, practical steps that fit daily life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree on methods that suit the person. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their methods for remote work, and discussing practical arrangements up front helps ensure sessions fit into everyday routines.
