Meet The Practice Owner
Thomas W. Romanus
M.Ed., LPC, CAADC, licensed in Pennsylvania
I’m Thomas (Tom) Romanus, M.Ed., LPC, CAADC, Founder and Practice Owner of Hearthstone Couples Counseling and Individual Therapy. I bring more than 25 years of professional experience to this work, including over two decades in executive consulting and leadership supporting C- and V-suite professionals, physicians, entrepreneurs, and healthcare leaders in high-pressure environments.
Over time, I came to recognize that my greatest sense of purpose was not rooted in performance or strategy, but in helping people move through difficult seasons with clarity and strength. That realization led me into clinical practice and ultimately to create Hearthstone as a place of restoration and renewed footing.
In those demanding settings, I saw how stress, unresolved trauma, and relationship strain often surface through substance use and other self-defeating coping patterns. I pursued advanced certification as a CAADC (Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor) to provide specialized, evidence-based support for individuals facing these challenges. I am also trained in trauma-informed care and EMDR to help address the deeper experiences that frequently drive them.
Welcome to Hearthstone Couples Counseling and Individual Therapy. If you are here, something in your life or relationship is asking for attention. Stress that will not ease. Communication that feels strained. Trust that has been shaken. Or a sense that, despite outward success, something internally feels unsettled.
Hearthstone is a confidential, focused space to address these challenges directly. Here, we work to understand what is driving the distress and build practical tools that restore connection, strengthen emotional balance, and create meaningful, lasting change in everyday life.
