Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Teresa draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to support clients in addressing thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship experiences influence current patterns of relating and can help with intimacy, attachment issues, and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Teresa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each individual.

Online therapy with Teresa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access support from different locations. These options provide flexibility in scheduling and modes of communication, allowing clients to choose the way of working that feels most comfortable and practical for them.
