Hi there, I'm Theresa. Do you feel overwhelmed, do you feel no matter what you try, or what you do, nothing changes? Are you struggling with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals that just feel plan stuck, stuck in their personal life, stuck in problem solving and stuck in this thing we call life. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self-approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I love to integrate measurable goals so that you build upon small goals that create change! Whether you're dealing with feeling overwhelmed, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Together we will explore what has brought you to step one of finding your joy, peace and goals.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a therapist I will meet you right where you are, my strength is building a rapport and making you feel good partaking in this therapy journey. We will be a team, you will never be given a choice or a path, but you will build coping skills, empowerment and the confidence to positive change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I’m best positioned to serve individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. Many are balancing demanding work, family, or creative lives while struggling with inner pressure, self‑criticism, or the sense that they’re “never doing enough.” Clients often come to therapy with concerns such as: Anxiety and overthinking that make it hard to rest or enjoy life. ADHD‑related challenges like disorganization, procrastination, or feeling inconsistent in motivation and focus. Relationship patterns that lead to conflict, people‑pleasing, or emotional distance. Work–life imbalance and burnout from constantly trying to meet others’ expectations. Low motivation or self‑doubt despite external success or accomplishments. Depression, feeling lost and how to recapture love for life. My approach is person‑centered and collaborative—grounded in warmth, curiosity, and respect for each client’s unique experience. Together we explore strengths, values, and emotions to build insight and practical skills for everyday life. The goal isn’t perfection, but greater self‑understanding, balance, and confidence in navigating relationships, responsibilities, and personal growth.

I brought marriage concerns to Theresa that I've been encountering, and she was extremely empowering and validated every feeling I had. I highly recommend her!

Hi, I just wanted to say my first appointment with Teresa was amazing. I started out thinking. I don’t even know where to begin, but she guided me and I would say we covered a lot in an hour, but we could’ve talked the whole day. I started up blowing my eyes out as I knew I would, but in the end we were laughing. I already feel so much better and I can’t wait to make my next appointment. Thank you.
