About Thomas

Thomas "Tom" Relevitch offers a calm, straightforward counselling style that centres the client. He uses a mix of client-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to help people with stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, relationship difficulties and coping with life changes. Tom has worked in the UK for around ten years and welcomes sessions in English, including from international clients.

Tom aims to make the first steps easier. He creates a non-judgemental space where people can talk about what worries them.

Background and approach

He respects that starting therapy takes courage and works at a pace that suits each person. In sessions he listens for patterns from the past that still affect day-to-day life. That psychodynamic perspective helps spot repeated relationship dynamics and feelings of emptiness or shame.

He also draws on client-centred principles, which keep the conversation focused on the person’s own priorities and experiences. Solution-focused methods are used to identify practical goals and small changes that feel achievable. This can be useful for manageable shifts around communication problems, coping with separation, or midlife concerns.

He also works with issues like attachment, guilt, infidelity and non-monogamous relationship questions. Tom usually offers appointments between 12 noon and 5 pm GMT, Monday to Thursday. Sessions are delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging and are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Ways of working Thomas names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Tom blends client-centred listening, psychodynamic reflection and solution-focused planning to suit different needs. Client-centred work means the conversation follows the person’s concerns and priorities, helping them feel heard and understood. Psychodynamic ideas look at how past patterns shape current feelings and relationships, which can clarify repeated problems like attachment or abandonment. Solution-focused work targets concrete goals and small steps, useful for improving communication, coping with life changes or managing anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most helpful. This collaborative process means approaches can be combined or adjusted as progress is reviewed and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow fuller conversation, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit more easily into a busy day. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments, and allow people in different countries to take part.
