Hello, I'm Teresa Anderson, a Licensed Professional Counselor and certified life coach based in Georgia. With over 15 years of experience in community mental health, I have had the privilege of working with adolescents, families, couples, and individuals, helping them navigate through life's challenges and find their path to healing and growth. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a method specifically designed to address the needs of children and adults dealing with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Over the years, I've gained extensive knowledge and experience in managing a wide array of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, and communication problems. I believe that therapy should be as unique as the individual seeking it. Therefore, I utilize various therapeutic modalities tailored to meet your specific needs. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights, and develop the skills necessary for personal growth and healing. In our sessions, you can expect a blend of hope, insight, encouragement, and spiritual growth. I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey, providing the support and guidance you need to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. If you're ready to take the next step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to create the change you seek.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll introduce briefly, and then dive into your specific challenges. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Having worked with individuals, couples, and families for the past 17 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress by implementing empathy, active listening, and patience.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

As a counselor, I am best positioned to serve clients who are navigating major life transitions, such as career changes, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, or coping with grief. My strength lies in helping individuals process their emotions and find clarity during uncertain times. I am particularly passionate about supporting young adults as they transition into adulthood, as I understand how challenging it can be to navigate this stage of life.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have used cognitive behavioral therapy for over 15 years in practice. It’s often structured, goal-oriented, and relatively short-term, with a focus on practical skills that can be applied in daily life. Clients can practice CBT techniques both during therapy sessions and as "homework" between appointments. It’s generally considered a highly effective, evidence-based treatment.
