Mavis Thomas is a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), holding license number TX LPC 69372, with 18 years of experience in therapy. She understands that thoughts shape feelings and influence behavior, and she combines Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people move toward emotional wholeness.

Her practice includes work with teens, couples, adults, families, groups, and schools. She supports clients facing anxiety, cross-cultural issues, low self-esteem, emotional disturbance, communication challenges, codependency, life transitions, relationship struggles, blended family concerns, ARD meetings, and related difficulties. These evidence-based approaches are used to empower clients to take practical steps toward their goals.

Mavis aims to create a safe environment where trust can grow and objectives can be pursued. She provides intentional time to listen and understand each person’s point of view and offers reassurance when it helps the therapeutic process. She believes a compassionate therapeutic relationship helps clients determine whether she is a good fit and how she can be most helpful.

She also draws on personal life experience when appropriate, including a culturally-diverse marriage of more than 17 years, knowledge of natural remedies, parenting, and homeschooling. Mavis is a female therapist of color who identifies as non-religious and liberal, and she practices in Texas.
