How Teresa’s approaches work online
Teresa commonly uses cognitive behavioral methods to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and depression. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to practice new skills between meetings.She also uses solution-focused techniques that zero in on small, concrete goals. These sessions look for what is already working and build step-by-step plans to reach the next goal. Systemic ideas are used when relationship or family patterns matter, helping map how interactions keep problems going and where small changes can shift the balance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Teresa discusses goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past, and then they pick methods that fit. The plan can change over time based on progress and shifting needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues and practice communication in real time. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief coaching, check-ins, or ongoing support between scheduled sessions.
