About Thomas Slough

Thomas Slough is a Licensed Psychological Associate (LPA) practicing in Texas with 42 years of clinical experience. He began his career at MHMR, where he developed skills in both individual and family therapy before transitioning to private practice to concentrate on abuse and trauma, depression, anxiety, anger management, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Throughout his work he has provided diagnosis and treatment for more than 100 Vietnam veterans and 10 Desert Storm veterans dealing with PTSD, and he has supported adult and child victims of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. More recently he has expanded services into the local public school system, working with students identified with an Emotional Disability, Autism, and Other Health Impairment (OHI).

His clinical approach emphasizes trust and clear communication as the foundation for effective therapy. He works broadly from a cognitive behavioral framework and integrates trauma-focused methods when processing emotional material is needed to help a person move forward. He believes clients make the most progress when they sense someone is "in their corner."

On a personal level he has been married for 40 years and is part of a blended family. His wife is Mexican-American, which has contributed to his experience with multicultural issues. As a parent and grandparent he remains mindful of the challenges facing families today and brings that perspective into his work.

Could Online Therapy Fit Your Life?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can really make a difference. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One of the primary benefits is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that works best for them: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to attend sessions around work, family commitments, or other obligations.

Therapists who offer remote services are licensed professionals, and if a particular therapist is not the right fit a client may switch to a different therapist. Online formats can broaden access to therapeutic support and allow people to pursue care in a way that aligns with their daily life.
