Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Theresa integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a supportive space where the client’s experience guides the work - it is useful for building self-understanding and trust. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building, which is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. DBT offers tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it a good fit for people managing intense emotions or relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Theresa works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Theresa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to engage in the way that best suits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, fit sessions into busy lives, and continue progress even when in-person visits are difficult.
