Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a therapist that genuinely hopes the best for my clients and works to reach treatment expectations as determined by my clients. My experiences in life have provided insight to the struggles and difficulties life presents. I am a Generation Xer having been born in 1966. Most of my formative years were spent in Ohio. My family moved to South Carolina right as I entered into high school. Sports has played an important role in my life. My hopes of getting into recreation management was redirected in college. I discovered the Family Therapy course offered one semester in college and enrolled. I thoroughly enjoyed the course. So, that lead me into the pursuit of becoming a psychotherapist. The path of obtaining higher education and licensure as a professional counselor took me to Texas. I received my initial training through a seminary my grandfather attended in the early 1920s. In 1989, I married and moved to Texas to follow my dream. The training I received has served me well. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the modality of choice for me in my practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy puts the emphasis on thoughts that lead to feelings which in turn manifest in our behaviors. Aiming to address the way we think and correct it can significantly impact lasting change to behaviors. I feel strongly about connecting with my clients and working toward a therapeutic alliance. Doing my best to give clients information, encouragement has been a successful formula in my practice.

Thomas McMinn is a therapist who genuinely hopes the best for the people he works with and aims to meet treatment goals as defined by his clients. He brings 28 years of professional experience and practices as a licensed professional counselor in South Carolina.
Born in 1966 and raised mostly in Ohio, he moved to South Carolina just as he entered high school. Sports played an important role in his youth, and an early interest in recreation management shifted during college when he discovered a Family Therapy course offered for one semester. That course captivated him and set him on the path to becoming a psychotherapist.
His pursuit of advanced training and licensure led him to Texas, where he received his initial training through a seminary attended by his grandfather in the early 1920s. In 1989 he married and moved to Texas to follow that professional dream, and the training he received there has informed his work ever since.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is his preferred approach. He emphasizes how thoughts shape feelings and how those feelings influence behavior, and he works with clients to adjust thinking patterns in ways that can foster lasting behavioral change. He values forming a strong therapeutic alliance and combines clear information with encouragement, a combination he has found effective in practice.
McMinn addresses a range of concerns including relationship and family conflicts, grief and loss, intimacy and parenting issues, stress and anxiety, eating disorders, anger management, self-esteem and career difficulties, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD.
Many people ask whether connecting with a therapist online can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the format that works best for them, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to include therapy in a busy life.
Care is provided by licensed professionals, and individuals are free to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, practical option for addressing everyday mental health concerns and relationship issues.
