She practises in Florida and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and women’s issues.

She uses a straightforward, collaborative style in sessions. Teresa draws on client-centered work to listen and respond to each person's goals. She pairs that with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to change unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills.

Her background includes long experience in community mental health and social services, followed by private practice beginning in 2014. Teresa completed a master’s degree in professional counseling from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology in 1999 and has pursued additional graduate coursework in grief, human sexuality, and trauma counseling.

In sessions she adapts methods to fit each person’s needs and cultural context. Teresa emphasizes collaboration, asking for client input and adjusting techniques as therapy progresses. Her aim is to help clients gain insight, strengthen self-acceptance, and develop practical skills to move forward.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify goals, build trust, and shape the work together. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical steps to change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety, depression, panic, and mood problems. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, brings concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication when emotions feel intense.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what helps, try techniques, and adapt the plan as needs change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for in-depth conversation, phone sessions when video isn't convenient, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule around work, care duties, or school and let people use the format that best suits their day-to-day needs.
