Thomas Potter

Hi friends, My name is Thomas and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Work, licensed in Oklahoma. I have practiced as a clinical social worker for 20 years and have worked in a variety of settings to include community mental health, hospice, and working with Veterans. I know that the first step of reaching out takes a lot of courage. Anytime we venture into the unknown, any time when we look for change, it can feel overwhelming and scary. However, I am ready to support you and guide you through this counseling/therapy process. Although our work together will be collaborative, you will be in the driver’s seat as you identify issues that are relevant to you and that you want to address. My approach is strength based and grounded in the here and now. If we begin working together and for whatever reason you do not feel comfortable with me or believe that I am providing helpful techniques, I will be more than happy to help you transition to a different therapist. It is important that you feel completely comfortable, are able to express yourself without reservation, and feel listened too. Therapy/counseling isn’t about the therapist; it is about you getting what you need to help you reach your goals. Life is challenging and full of twists and turns, Better Help is here for you as you navigate your path. I look forward to working with you!
