How Theresa’s Approaches Work Online

Theresa uses client-centered work to focus on each person’s priorities. That approach means sessions begin with what matters most to the client and use conversation to discover practical next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and helps people test new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, and low mood. Those skills are taught in short, actionable steps that clients can practice between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Theresa collaborates with each person to decide what fits their needs and preferences. Together they review goals and try strategies, then adjust the plan as progress and life circumstances change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and working through emotional material. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share updates, ask quick questions, and maintain continuity between sessions. These options help make regular work on goals easier to fit into busy lives.
