About Theresa
Her academic background includes a BA in Theology and Philosophy from St. Joseph's College of Maine, a Master of Counseling and Psychology from the University of West Alabama, and a Master of Divinity in Pastoral Care from Mercer University Atlanta. In addition to her LPC credential, she is a certified addiction counselor (CACII) since 2007, a credential that reflects specialized training in substance use and recovery support.
Theresa favors a client-centered approach that encourages collaboration and skill-building. She has particular experience helping people with co-occurring conditions - for example, when trauma and anxiety or addiction and depression occur together - and she offers practical, measurable strategies to reach achievable goals. Her aim is to help clients develop new tools and clear steps to move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Attachment, Client-Centered Care, and CBT Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust; it helps people work through abandonment, attachment injuries, and intimacy-related issues by exploring relational dynamics and building healthier bonds. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the therapist's nonjudgmental presence and unconditional positive regard, creating a supportive space where clients set the pace and direction of healing; this approach is useful for self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional processing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective strategies - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Theresa works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. Clients help shape the work and are supported in learning practical skills.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals, maintain momentum between sessions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
