More about Thérèse

- LCSW
Welcome! My name is Thérèse Fletcher, I have dedicated my life to the service of helping others.
About Me: The majority of my career has been focused on working with extremely vulnerable communities in urban settings. I enjoy helping all types of people with problems big and small. Relationship issues, life transitions, grief and loss, emotional stress, and chronic illnesses, are among the many areas that I have helped my clients effectively deal with and overcome. I believe therapy is a collaborative process and it's my responsibility to meet a client where they are and to help them set appropriate, beneficial goals for themselves.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am a licensed independent clinician with more than 11 years in medical and social services fields. I also have supervised and trained other social workers.
I believe a successfully therapeutic relationship is one based on respect. I believe in a strength based approach which uplifts confidence and empowers you as an individual.
My approach includes working together to develop specific methods and perspectives that will not only help you resolve your current issue, but give you the tools to make your life from today onward more fulfilling and satisfying.
I know that the decision to seek professional help can often be a very difficult one.
If you are trying to make that decision right now, it may help you to know that I am someone who is not here to judge you, and who really believes that there is a way out for you that together we can find. You have already taken the most important step by acknowledging that, for now, this is something you cannot handle alone. So if you feel overwhelmed or unfulfilled, your online search has brought you to the right place. I can help you with emotional issues such as self-esteem, depression, anxiety, anger, and stress. I also help you with other areas of your life that become affected by these issues such as relationships, communication, work or your education. I can provide accountability as you work through the growth process.
I can provide short-term solution oriented treatment as well as long-term emotional processing. Your treatment goals and how much you will benefit from services are completely up to you but I will be here to guide you every step of the way.
I'm grateful to BetterHelp for giving a therapeutic resource to people that may otherwise not have access to counseling services, and I applaud individuals that are currently looking to make changes they need in their lives.
It takes a lot of strength and courage to critically think about what you need. You’ve already taken the first, and most difficult step, so contact me if you are ready to start the course towards a better You. I look forward to helping empower you to live your best life!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I have enjoyed working with The'r'ese Fletcher. She was a true blessing!
Therese Fletcher is a very patient and knowledgeable therapist. I feel comfortable Discussing my problems with her and she always gives wonderful, biblically sound advice. I would highly recommend Therese to anyone in need of a Christian therapist.
Thérèse is really supportive and validating. She has an easygoing manner that made me feel comfortable and encouraged from day 1. For me, her strong suit has been in providing me with tools and skills to manage my stress and emotional health. I really value my time with Thérèse and appreciate all the work we've done together.
Therese is very good at addressing specific issues when notified about them. She is very flexible and great at working around your schedule and she is willing to spend more time helping and communicating if she sees more help is needed. She is very gracious and understanding and I am very grateful I am working with her.
My counselor, Therese Fletcher, is excellent. I have benefited greatly (so far) from the time chatting and sharing with her. She has good insight and recommendations.
I really enjoy every minute I get to spend with Thérèse. I've never had a therapist before and it has been a great experience. Highly recommend!
Therese has been an extremely helpful sounding board and given me tools and thought exercises to help me through the topics and issues we discuss.
Very understanding and provides opportunity for reflection. Offers time to really express your thoughts and concerns.
I really like Thérèse! She is professional, listend to me, offers me great support and I have the feeling she really understands my thoughts and concerns. She always answers really fast (we have a time difference of 7 hours, so i keep in account that sometimes it’s night at hers when I’m writing her, so if cause she won’t answer). English isn’t my first language but I have no issues in understanding her and the information she is sending me!
She is a great listener and then comes back with great analysis and insights. She has really helped me through a difficult time and I would highly recommend her.
Working with Thérèse has been a wonderful experience. To have someone to really listen and also validate what I am experiencing. It can be hard sometimes not having someone to speak to when navigating emotional trauma but Thérèse has been amazing in doing this.
Thérèse has been very responsive so far.
I have made great progress with my counselor Therese Fletcher. We are open and direct and I get amazing guidance. This online counseling thru betterhelp is so good, that I have already referred it to 5 other people. I have gone the live chats, I’ve done the online face to face and I have joined several groupinars. Everything has been so helpful and I am becoming a more mindful person while I am working on myself. I have really learned a lot. Thank you
Therese you have been a great help to me. I really appreciate your time and consideration.
I had a poitive interaction with Mrs. Fletcher. She is friendly yet adresses problems in a clear and concise manner. She also gave out lots of worksheets and helpful ressources. I recommend her counselling and guidance to anybody who is both scientific and religiously oriented.
I feel really comfortable with speaking to Therese. She explains and helps me understand why I am feeling different ways related to my situations. Therese helps me feel at ease with emotions and has given me great tools and ideas to help ease anxiety and other feelings I am dealing with at the moment. I highly recommend Therese Fletcher!
She's been amazing, helped me process my feelings and work on the things I needed to heal in order to grow stronger and be content with my life. She was available everyday, I managed to connect with her deeply, she was supportive. I never expected to meet someone who'd have such a big positive effect on my life. I want to continue my journey with her and I trust the lessons I've learnt from her will continue to be useful for my present and future.
Thérèse truly listens and when I speak with her I feel it’s a very very safe space. She is kind, understanding and pragmatic I couldn’t recommend her enough. She also really knows how to uplift you and brighten your day I’m very grateful for having been matched with her.
I've had many therapists in my life, but no one has understood me like Thérèse has.
Very comfortable first session, I feel like she is great at listening and identifying things to work on. I can't wait for the next session!
Therese is fantastic!!
Thérèse has been a blessing for me so far. She is extremely knowledgeable and down to earth which has helped me accept that seeking counseling in the first place was the right choice.
I feel like I have found the help I need. Thérése is an amazing attentive professional who listens, gives good direction and calls me out on my B.S. I am so happy to have found her
My sessions with Thérèse have helped me a lot. She is respectful and she listens to my concerns carefully. She has shared some useful resources with me to improve my attitude and she always replies my messages. She is a great counsellor
She’s great. Very balanced and logical. Sensitive but straightforward. Highly recommend.
She’s a bright warm and caring counselor. I feel she has helped me through several of life’s strife and difficult times.
Therapy always begins with you wanting to make change. Thérèse goes above and beyond to make sure that you understand that you are not alone, and provide the best advice to knowing how to deal with your problems. If you have any important goals, Thérèse is the best person you could count on to get the best help you need in order to achieve such goals. All you have to do, is just ask. I highly recommend for you to just choose her right now, you will not regret this.
Thérèse has been helping me for almost a month now and so far my experience has been entirely positive. I’ve tried conventional therapy twice before and was let down immensely with the experience. With the BetterHelp platform I’m actually enjoying my sessions/service and am more hopeful for my future now than I have been in an extremely long time. Thérèse’s commitment to my care, availability, and open communication are incredible. I couldn’t be happier with my decision to join BetterHelp, and I’m very glad I was paired with Thérèse.
Thérèse has helped me through an extremely difficult time, I don't know what I would have done without her. As well as getting me through, we have made some great progress on key aspects. I'm very happy working with her.
