Teresa Kennison, LPC

Approaches and online care that fit everyday life

Teresa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and understanding patterns. One common approach she draws on teaches skills for managing worry and stress, such as grounding, paced breathing, and breaking worries into smaller, solvable parts; this is useful for people dealing with anxiety and constant stress. Another common direction helps people process difficult events and grief by creating space to name painful memories and to build coping routines for difficult days; this approach supports recovery after trauma or loss.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Teresa works with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust as needed. She helps clients choose what feels most useful based on their needs, preferences, and day-to-day demands rather than assuming one single method will work.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow real-time face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat is helpful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief notes or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress.
