About Theresa

She draws on a range of therapeutic methods to tailor care to each person's needs, emphasizing practical strategies and measurable progress.
Background and approach
Theresa frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on identifying workable actions that move clients toward the life they want. Her practice blends evidence-informed tools including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness alongside acceptance and client-centered approaches.
She is known for attentive listening and a solution-oriented stance that seeks to clarify goals and track change over time. Theresa also brings experience addressing trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication difficulties, blended family dynamics, veteran and armed forces issues, post-traumatic stress, and seasonal affective disorder.
Based in North Carolina, she accepts international clients and offers flexible session formats to fit different schedules and preferences. Prospective clients are invited to connect, discuss fit, and select an approach together before beginning work toward clearer perspectives and practical improvements.
Online approaches that emphasize clarity and practical steps
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by teaching concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Sessions often focus on practical exercises and measurable changes that can be applied between meetings.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance strategies with values-driven action, guiding people to notice difficult internal experiences while choosing meaningful behaviors. This approach can be useful for those managing ongoing stress, grief, or persistent emotional patterns.
Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to explore which combination of CBT, ACT, or client-centered and mindfulness techniques best matches their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities, adjusting direction as progress becomes evident.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules or varied comfort levels with remote care. These formats make it simpler to fit regular sessions into life routines and to access consistent support from licensed professionals regardless of location.
