Great to meet you!

Life is constantly changing, and sometimes it can be stressful and overwhelming. I value each person's strengths and uniqueness and offer a safe and non-judgmental space to facilitate personal growth and improved emotional well-being. Fostering a professional and secure therapeutic relationship is essential to therapeutic growth and facilitates healing. My role is to guide and support you on your journey.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I draw from a variety of treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness and Solution-focused. These methods are individualized since one approach does not fit all.

What you can expect from our first session

I believe in meeting clients where there are in their stage of life and empowering them to discover insights and reach their goals. You can expect to feel heard and validated.

Teresa's style is

Empowering
Holistic
Warm
