Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care
Theresa works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and real-life changes. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in relationships and developing new ways of communicating and setting boundaries to improve connection and intimacy. Another approach centers on coping skills for mood and stress problems such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder by teaching problem-solving, activity planning, and emotion regulation skills.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Theresa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and tweak the plan as things change.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, live chat works for quick exchanges during a busy day, and messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These formats make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, or family life while keeping care consistent.
