About Teresa
Teresa Worthy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, and the everyday strains of parenting and work. Teresa also supports men’s wellbeing among other concerns and tailors sessions to each person’s situation.
Her approach is interactive and down-to-earth. She listens with respect and uses a blend of methods to fit what a person needs. Sessions avoid stigmatizing labels and instead focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.
Teresa draws on methods from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotionally-focused work. She mixes these approaches so people learn new skills, shift difficult patterns, and talk through painful experiences such as trauma or grief.
Clients often work on coping with life changes, improving self-esteem, managing ADHD symptoms, and addressing intimacy and relationship concerns. She also helps with long-term issues like bipolar mood management, chronic pain and illness, caregiving stress, and complications from domestic violence.
Teresa works with people who want coaching-style guidance as well as traditional counseling. Her sessions emphasize collaboration: setting clear goals, practicing skills between meetings, and tracking progress. To begin, she asks a few questions so sessions match each person’s goals and daily life.
Clinical approaches and online teamwork
Teresa uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in ways that are easy to apply to daily life. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change feelings and outcomes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take committed action even when difficult emotions appear.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods that fit those aims. She frames therapy as a collaboration where techniques are tried and adjusted based on what actually helps.
The therapist's biography does not list specific online or in-person session formats, so confirm available formats before booking. Many clients find online sessions helpful because they can fit meetings into a busy day, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online work can make practicing skills between meetings easier and keep momentum going when life is hectic.
