How Theresa works

Approaches and how they work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects feelings and priorities so the client can clarify what matters and decide next steps; this approach helps when someone needs support to sort through strong emotions or make a change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps and builds new coping habits.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That process can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, while live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when writing helps process thoughts. These options give flexibility so people can choose the format that best supports regular work toward their goals.
