About Thomas
Thomas Brent is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in New York. He uses a blend of Jungian ideas, attachment-focused work, and cognitive approaches to help people untangle stressful situations. He talks plainly and keeps sessions focused on problems people bring in now.
He sees many common concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and issues around intimacy. He also helps with parenting stress, workplace difficulties, addictions, eating concerns, and questions about identity and LGBT issues.
Background and approach
He pays attention to family of origin patterns and attachment struggles that affect current choices. In sessions he helps people map out dilemmas and make clearer decisions. Conversations aim to identify patterns that keep someone stuck and to try small, practical changes.
He combines talking about emotions with steps you can try between meetings. Thomas adjusts his approach to each person’s needs. That might mean looking at unconscious themes informed by Jungian ideas, tracking how attachment shows up in relationships, or using cognitive strategies to manage thoughts and behavior.
The mix depends on what the person wants to work on. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for flexibility. Sessions can fit around work and family life, and international clients may be served in English.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
Approaches for online work and relationship patterns
Jungian Therapy looks at recurring images, dreams, and life themes to help someone understand deeper patterns that shape feelings and choices. It can be useful when people sense a repeating personal story or want to explore meaning behind big life shifts.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds influence current relationships and emotional responses. This approach helps people notice patterns in closeness and push-pull dynamics and build more supported ways of relating.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with clear, practical steps. It is often used to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and try small experiments that change daily routines and reactions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest a mix of methods that fit your situation. You can try different ways of working and adjust the plan as needed. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let you read facial cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options give flexibility for scheduling, pacing, and comfort while working through relationship patterns and emotional concerns.
