About Tommie
Prof. Tommie Colin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or big life changes.
She also supports those dealing with relationship or intimacy issues, parenting concerns, addiction, and struggles with self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and are tailored to each person’s needs. Her work combines talking and body-focused methods to help people reconnect with their sensations and emotions.
Background and approach
She uses Somatic approaches alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and build new responses. Attachment-based and client-centered ideas guide how she builds trust and understanding in sessions. In the room, she aims for practical steps and real moments of relief.
She listens without judgment and helps people set clear, doable goals. For someone coping with trauma or chronic stress, this can mean learning grounding skills, adjusting thoughts, and experimenting with new ways of relating to others. Prof.
Colin adapts sessions to what a person prefers and needs. She works with issues such as ADHD, chronic pain, caregiving stress, body image, blended family challenges, and communication problems. Her approach is steady and patient, focused on small changes that add up over time.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. The aim is to help people move from merely surviving toward a more engaged, meaningful life.
How somatic and talk therapies work online
Somatic-informed work focuses on how the body holds stress and emotion. Online sessions can include noticing breath, posture, tension, and simple grounding movements to help reduce overwhelm and return attention to the present. This approach can be useful for trauma, chronic stress, and anxiety.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It uses practical exercises to change how someone relates to difficult thoughts and feelings, which can ease avoidance and increase engagement in life.
Attachment-Based Therapy and client-centered practices shape how the therapist builds a safe, supportive relationship. These approaches focus on understanding patterns in relationships and strengthening trust and communication skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then try methods that fit. That collaboration helps tailor sessions so techniques are useful in daily life.
Online formats offer flexibility and ongoing access to support. Video calls let the therapist and client see one another for richer interaction, while phone, live chat, or text sessions can suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to practice skills between meetings and to access continuity of care when life is busy.
