About Tommy
Tommy Fletcher is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New Mexico. He holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and brings ten years of recent counseling experience working with adults and teens. He helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, and issues with intimacy or self-esteem.
Tommy draws on straightforward, practical methods in session. He uses mindfulness practices alongside cognitive and behavioral tools to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. He also blends elements of acceptance and commitment work, dialectical behavior ideas, and a client-centered stance to match each person’s needs.
His background includes many years of social work and experience within the legal system, which shaped his calm, problem-solving approach. He encourages clients to see their own strengths and to treat therapy as a place to practice new habits rather than a quick fix.
Sessions are offered during daytime and evening hours Monday through Thursday. Tommy asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on therapist availability. He does not take international clients and works in English.
People who choose him often want clear tools for coping, steady support after trauma, or help managing life changes such as career shifts, caregiving, or recovery from loss. He emphasizes small steps and collaborative planning to make progress feel doable.
How mindfulness and practical therapies translate to online work
Tommy uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people build awareness of thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations so they can choose different responses. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with trauma by teaching grounding and present-moment skills.
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions even when emotions are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of his toolkit too, providing concrete exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and routines that keep problems going.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Tommy works with each person to decide which tools fit their goals, and he adjusts techniques as needs change. Clients shape the pace and focus of sessions so the work stays relevant to daily life.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the offered session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, offer shorter check-ins when time is limited, and let people practice skills in the contexts where they live their lives. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness and CBT exercises to an online setting so the work still focuses on building skills and managing symptoms without promising particular outcomes.
