How Teresa’s approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so people can explore what matters to them. In this method the therapist follows the client’s lead and offers understanding and reflection to help clarify goals and next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and boosting confidence because it breaks larger problems into small, doable tasks and skills to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Teresa will discuss preferences, goals, and current concerns and then recommend ways of working that fit. This is a collaborative process and it can change as needs shift over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people maintain a face-to-face connection, while phone sessions can fit into a quick break or workday. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins and written notes people can review later. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and differing comfort levels.
