About Auslyn
Auslyn Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with five years of counseling experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, and concerns common to young adults such as career stress and feeling lost after life changes. She also lists ADHD, grief, bipolar mood concerns, and LGBT issues among her areas of focus.
Thomas uses several practical methods in session. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice values and take meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify patterns of thinking that feed anxiety or low mood. She also draws on client-centered skills to keep conversations grounded in what the person brings to the room.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is getting in the way now and simple strategies to try between sessions. Thomas has worked in community, residential, and juvenile justice settings, which informs how she approaches crisis moments and complicated histories. Her background includes work with trauma, behavioral concerns, abuse, and crisis intervention.
She lists additional focus areas such as body image, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication problems, domestic violence, multicultural concerns, and issues tied to sexual subcultures like BDSM and kink. She also notes work related to parenting, money and financial stress, and isolation or loneliness.

How ACT and CBT shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and try small, values-based steps. It can be useful for anxiety, feeling stuck after big life changes, and making choices about work or relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and low mood going, then testing new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often used for panic, general anxiety, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each client about goals and preferences and recommend ACT, CBT, or client-centered techniques that fit best. That decision is collaborative and may change as needs evolve.
The original profile does not list which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone use video when they want face-to-face interaction or choose audio if they need a lower-bandwidth option. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and grounding techniques for remote sessions so clients keep making progress while managing school, work, or other commitments.
