Mavis Thomas, LPC

Mavis Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who centers her work on the idea that thoughts shape feelings and drive behavior. She integrates Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide evidence-informed strategies that help clients move toward greater emotional balance and practical change. Her approach aims to empower individuals to take concrete steps toward emotional wholeness while building skills to manage difficult thoughts and reactions.

Mavis brings more than 18 years of clinical experience working with teens, couples, adults, families, groups, and schools. She addresses a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting and blended family dynamics, self-esteem issues, grief, anger, ADHD, coping with life changes, communication problems, codependency, and cross-cultural matters. In sessions she offers intentional time to understand each personâs perspective, listens to clarify priorities, and provides steady support as clients pursue their goals. Her practice emphasizes forming a trusting therapeutic relationship so clients can assess whether she is the right fit and determine how she can best help.

Alongside her clinical training, Mavis draws on personal experience to inform her work, including a culturally-diverse marriage of more than 17 years and practical knowledge of natural remedies, parenting, and homeschooling. She works collaboratively with clients to identify realistic objectives and practical steps for lasting change.
