LCSW, 10 years of experience
It humbles me to be able to walk alongside people who want more for their lives. The people who want to know themselves better and live more authentically in this world. Doing new and difficult things is hard. You are not alone on this journey. Traveling these hard roads myself, it has become my life’s work to help other people overcome their wounds and reveal the truth about who they are. We will work together to understand the root cause of your struggles and address them with long-lasting strategies, helping you get closer to the life you’ve always wanted.
Our first session will be a gentle discussion about your intake and assessments. Gathering information and building relationship. It’s important for you to feel like this is a good fit. And if not that’s OK too. It’s all about your needs, feeling comfortable and at peace with the process. Therapy can be intimidating. I've been there and am very aware of that awkwardness in the beginning. We will get through it together.
I love all the unique stories that define the people I get to work with. I want to know you. Even the messy parts of you. I hope to create a safe space for you to be yourself and to feel seen and heard. I try to meet people right where they are.
Is your past keeping you from moving forward? Does it feel overwhelming to travel this journey alone? Has pain hijacked your life? Seeking help can be hard. You’ve likely been debating it for months, if not years. I’m so glad you have taken the courageous step of being here. We have all been wounded in relationship. Either in childhood, our current life or both. Do the affects of these wounds define how you feel about yourself and how you interact with the world around you? People pleasing, perfectionism, self sabotage, self criticism are areas that I can help you overcome. With compassion and kindness we will look at why these behaviors are affecting your life. Maybe you feel that your needs don’t matter or you’re not good enough. Together we can create a safe space for you here. Are you struggling within your relationships, overwhelmed in your life, or grieving from loss? It’s important to know you are not alone. You don’t have to be perfect on this journey. Your story matters. I love story, engaging in story and helping people begin to love their own story.
Understand your attachment style is imperative to understanding yourself and how you show up in relationships
EMDR can be transformative in helping you to work through negative beliefs and past trauma. I have helped many clients as an EMDRIA trained EMDR clinician. I am working towards certification presently.
Being a truama informed therapist provides an understanding of not what’s wrong with someone but what’s happened to them. Allowing compassion and kindness to be present is key.

A friend of mine referred me to Theresa. When I tell people about Theresa, I referred to her as awesome, and cool. I don’t normally use those adjectives, but they are very fitting for her. She is outstanding. I feel so comfortable talking to her, she really helps me. One thing that she says, and I want to believe, no matter what, I will be OK. This is very reassuring. I feel like I can tell Theresa anything on my mind, and not be ashamed or embarrassed I’m so thankful that I found Theresa.

All I can say is that she is definitely whithout a doubt heaven sent. Theresa is helping me navigate my dark childhood and find peace. I am learning how my story is important and healing is achievable.
