More about me

Years in Practice: 17 State: Alabama

Hello, I hope you are able to find the right counselor to help you at this present time. Finding a counselor takes a lot of courage to be open to share with someone you don't know and work on developing trust. Each time we meet, I will humbly work on earning your trust while teaching you new skills and tools to help you reach your goal. I've been a counselor in Georgia for 15 years. I have a BA in Theology/Philosophy from St. Joseph's College of Maine, Masters in Counseling and Psychology from University of West Alabama, and a Master in Divinity Pastoral Care from Mercer University Atlanta. I love helping others help themselves and practice a client-centered approach. I practice having a non-judgmental presence, unconditional positive regard, and empathy as the foundation for counseling. Focusing on a holistic and integrative approach which helps me understand your overall wellness physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I have experience in helping others with anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma and abuse. My specialities are working with co-occurring disorders (more than one thing going on at the same time like trauma and anxiety or substance use/addictions and depression). I'm a certified addiction counselor, CACII since 2007. My goal is to help you find simple, measurable, and achievable ways to create goals in a timely manner to live a fulfilling and happier life.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

She really knows what she's doing. The experience is THERE. She really does her job and then some. I have been so thank for her time and wisdom.

At 50 years young, I have been in therapy for the bulk of 35 years. Theresa is top class! She knows her stuff and has ways of helping me look at my life strategy in new ways. Highly recommended, full stars.

She has a lot of tools to help me, personalizes help to me, is not judgmental and meets me where I am

If you're reading this, you know how difficult it is to find a therapist you gel with. I really like Theresa...I like her style, her views, her advice. We've had 3 sessions and all were very helpful. SOOOOOO happy I discovered her!

Right off the first session I knew that Theresa was gonna be a great match for me as my therapist. She actually gives me tools to use to help better myself mentally in ways I wouldn’t have thought. I’ve had trouble with previous therapists because I always felt like I knew what was “wrong” with me but I didn’t know what to do with that information or how to fix it. Theresa gives me the tools I need in every session to deal with each of my problems. Amazing therapist :)

Great therapist

I feel like I found a diamond in the rough with Theresa. From our very first session she has given me tools and resources to start making the positive changes in myself and my life. She listens to you and dives right into what you need. I’m so thankful for all the things I have learned and continue to learn. Right when you think you might have it figured out, she helps you realize there is still more to learn and that healing can be an on going journey. She uses a huge variety of tools to teach concepts, visually, stories, emotionally, definitions, videos, reading resources. I feel she is just full of information and I am always learning something fantastic and opening my mind. I am forever changed just on the things I was taught and learned. It has strengthened myself and all of my relationships.

Theresa is the best, she’s understanding of your situation and is willing to help you out in any way that she possibly can. I feel a big relief after talking with her

She is Amazing, I have started working with her and she has help so much!

Thank you for coaching me

Theresa has been an empathetic and non-judgmental therapist who truly cares. I've been dealing with some pretty heavy stuff...and she has been a wonder guide.

Very great

Perfect

She’s amazing!

I really appreciate my therapist and I'm excited about this journey of healing that I'm pursuing. She was a great choice for me

I have been very happy with her. Just had one session and it was good.

I was in need of a couple months of therapy, just a quick mental tuneup and Theresa was instrumental in it. Highly recommend.

In the few sessions we have had she is amazing. I feel she truly listens to me and helps me and always sends me things to help me or just to keep my mind busy. I highly recommend her, she has been a blessing through my journey

She is amazing at providing a variety of tools to navigate my anxiety and adhd. Incredibly kind and compassionate!

She's amazing. I'm autistic and needed someone who could communicate the way i needed to understand and she is fantastic at that.

Theresa has given me a variety of methods to deal with my day-to-day stress. She excels at her profession.

Theresa is exceptional and has helped me tremendously over the last two months. I have tried therapy before but this is the first time I feel like I have actually benefitted from going. Highly recommend Therese!

:) ty theresa

She has helped me have a better outlook in life!

Theresa is amazing, she’s been helping me out more then she’ll ever know. Being able to just express how you feel to a person without being judged by them is a great feeling

Theresa provides great support and tools for handling life's challenges. She's easy to talk to and is very insightful.

We have had two sessions now. Theresa is very attentive and a great listener. She has relatable life experience which makes her easy to trust. I look forward to our sessions.

Very awesome to work with!!

She is great

I came to Theresa as a broken person. She has been extremely helpful in helping me see through the negativity; reveling all the positivity that my life actually has. There are not enough good things I can say about her.

Excellent!!!

Very good therapist

I appreciate being told what I need to know not what I want to hear. She carefully makes suggestions that really match what I need

Wonderful

Theresa is a great match for me. She understands my problems & is helping me work them out. I like that she gives me goals to work on. Anyone who is matched with her will be very lucky to have her as a therapist. I feel blessed to have her in my corner during my troubles
