Teressa Tyree , LPC

Teressa Tyree is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the practical strains of life. Teressa aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where someone can speak openly and begin to make changes.

She works with people dealing with family tensions and communication problems. She also supports those facing life changes, workplace pressure, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Money worries, impulsivity, and mood concerns are additional areas she addresses.

Teressa blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns. She uses mindfulness practices to help people slow down, notice their reactions, and practice new responses. Sessions focus on clear, doable steps rather than jargon or long lectures.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. Teressa helps people set small goals, try new skills between sessions, and review what works. She emphasizes self-compassion and building confidence over time.

People seeking support for women’s issues will find that she includes that focus among her areas of work. She communicates in plain language and encourages questions, so a person understands the plan and next steps before committing to a path forward.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Teressa uses client-centered therapy to prioritize the person’s perspective, listening without judgment and shaping sessions around what matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and sets the agenda for practical change.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks down how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT provides clear, step-by-step techniques for managing anxiety, low mood, and impulsive reactions, making it easy to practice skills between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy is used to build awareness of bodily sensations and emotions. Simple exercises teach slowing down, noticing reactions, and choosing responses rather than reacting automatically. These practices support stress reduction and improved emotional regulation.

Deciding which approach fits is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and demonstrations, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and maintain continuity over time.
