How Theresa’s Approaches Work Remotely

Theresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT focuses on small experiments and practical strategies for managing mood and anxiety. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and ways to respond differently when feelings run high.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Theresa will talk with each person about what they want to change, try methods that match those goals, and adjust as progress is made. The process is collaborative and goal-oriented so people know what they are working toward.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and keep momentum between visits. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules require quick support. Theresa will discuss how to structure sessions so they match each person's schedule and needs.
