How Teresa works

Online support options
How Teresa’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and valuing each person’s perspective. It helps people feel heard and guides the therapist to shape sessions around a person's goals and strengths.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and problems that feel stuck in day-to-day life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. These skills can be helpful when emotions feel intense or relationships are strained.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust techniques over time in a collaborative way.
Online sessions can fit into busy schedules because they remove travel time and let people connect from wherever they are. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility while keeping therapy focused and practical.
