More about Theresa

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and challenges with self-esteem. I'm particularly passionate about guiding people through life transitions, social anxiety, and workplace difficulties.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate and holistic, addressing a wide range of experiences including isolation, family dynamics, caregiver stress, and personal growth. I work collaboratively with clients to explore deeper emotional patterns, develop meaningful coping strategies, and rediscover personal strength and purpose.

I understand that seeking support takes courage, and I'm committed to creating a safe, affirming space where individuals can explore their experiences, heal from past challenges, and build resilience for their future. My goal is to empower clients to develop greater self-understanding and create positive, sustainable changes in their lives.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

THERESA IS AMAZING!

Reviewed August 2022

I've been working with Theresa for almost half a year now. I can definitely see an improvement with myself. She's been helping me through some of my engrained emotions and mental battles. She's open to giving me ideas and techniques to help fight against the "mental monsters", as I call them. Theresa is very kind, understanding, professional and down to earth.
