About Thomas Lyon
He practices Depth Psychotherapy, a form of therapy focused on exploring deep inner processes that shape how people relate to themselves and to others. He works to engage parts of the self that have been neglected, hurt, undeveloped, unappreciated, or hidden, providing a non-judgmental space where clients can feel heard and understood.
In collaboration with clients he attends to thoughts, feelings, intuitions, and bodily sensations as important sources of insight. Sessions offer a place to examine struggles as well as hopes, dreams, and desires. While he can assist with specific problem-solving when needed, his approach remains holistic and tailored - developing treatment plans that reflect each personâs unique needs and goals.
He is open about the fact that therapy can sometimes feel intense and that the therapeutic fit may not always be ideal. That possibility is often easier to assess within the first session. He views the development of personality and a more purposeful engagement with life as a courageous, unfolding process, and describes therapeutic work as a collaborative effort that proceeds at a pace suited to the individual.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a meaningful difference. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life changes - online therapy can be a viable and helpful option that supports the same kinds of therapeutic exploration and work offered in traditional in-person settings.One of the primary advantages is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule or to access care from different locations. Licensed professionals provide these services, and clients are free to switch therapists if they feel another clinician would be a better fit. Online therapy can make consistent engagement with treatment more accessible and convenient while preserving the collaborative nature of the therapeutic relationship.
