About Theresa
Theresa Thomason is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She focuses on stress and anxiety and helps people who are dealing with trauma, anger, parenting challenges, and family conflict. Theresa aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supported.
Theresa uses straightforward, evidence-based tools in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused work, mindfulness, and rational-emotive approaches to help people notice patterns and try different responses.
Background and approach
Sessions are guided by the person's goals and experience, with the therapist following the client's lead. Her approach centers on practical changes that fit everyday life. That might mean learning simple breathing or mindfulness practices, testing new ways of thinking about a problem, or planning small behavioral steps to reduce stress.
Theresa often focuses on anger management skills when that is a concern. She also brings experience related to adoption and foster care, attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family issues, and substance-related struggles. Other areas she addresses include midlife transitions, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.
Theresa aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through. She encourages clients to set practical goals and to try small experiments between sessions. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Evidence-based approaches that work online
Theresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based practices in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety or stress. Mindfulness work teaches attention and breathing strategies that lower emotional reactivity and support calmer responses to triggers.She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals and track progress between sessions. These brief, practical steps are useful for managing parenting challenges, anger, and family tension. Together the approaches are chosen with the client's needs and preferences in mind, and Theresa works collaboratively to find what fits best.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit care into a busy life. Video works well when visual connection helps the conversation. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be simpler during a break at work. Live chat and messaging let someone check in or do shorter updates without scheduling a full session. These options offer flexibility and consistent access to a licensed professional while you work on stress, anxiety, and practical skills.
