About Thorpe Petersen Taxes & Accounting, PLLC

A Trusted CPA in Helotes TX Who’s in It With You

When it comes to taxes, most people just want one thing: someone they can trust. Someone who picks up the phone, explains things clearly, and doesn’t disappear after filing day. That’s what this firm was built on.

My name is Thorpe Petersen, and I’ve been a Certified Public Accountant in Helotes TX since 1995. But more than the title, I’m someone who believes your finances deserve attention, care, and long-term planning, not last-minute scrambling. That’s why I also became a Certified Tax Coach in Texas, to give clients more than compliance. To give them strategy.

How It Began

Why I Started This Practice

After working in traditional tax offices for years, I kept seeing the same pattern. People were paying way too much because no one had ever taught them how to plan. Most accountants only talked to their clients once a year, and by then, it was too late to do anything meaningful.

I knew there had to be a better way. So I set out to build something different: a place where people get year-round support, strategic tax planning, and honest advice from someone who knows them by name.

That’s how Thorpe Petersen Taxes & Accounting, PLLC was born.
