01About Teresa
Teresa Robertson offers calm, steady support for people facing anxiety, depression, grief, parenting stress, and relationship strains. She aims to make therapy direct and practical, so people can notice small improvements and use them in daily life. Teresa is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, with nearly two decades of clinical experience.
Teresa spent many years in community mental health and social services before moving into independent practice in 2014.
Background and approach
That work exposed her to a wide range of situations and needs, from mood and behavior challenges to trauma and disaster response. She completed a master’s degree in professional counseling in 1999 and pursued additional graduate coursework in grief, trauma, and human sexuality. Her approach pulls from several well-known methods and adapts them to each person.
Teresa uses client-centered techniques to build trust and collaboration. She also incorporates cognitive-behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness skills to help with stress regulation. For people affected by trauma, Teresa has studied trauma-focused methods and understands how stress affects the brain and body.
She blends approaches so therapy fits a person’s preferences and cultural background rather than forcing a single method. Teresa works with concerns such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, panic, social anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She focuses on helping people gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and find a clearer path forward.

04Online support
How Teresa’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace. Online, this looks like conversations that prioritize the person’s needs and goals while the therapist adapts communication to suit video or messaging formats.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change them. In remote sessions clients learn skills, practice between meetings, and use chat or text for brief check-ins or homework support.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It can be helpful for mood swings, panic, and relationship stress, and skills training can be taught over video or reinforced with brief messages between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Teresa will collaborate with each person to pick and adapt methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort with different formats. That choice can change over time as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls give face-to-face connection, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping a steady therapeutic relationship.
