How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that align with those values. It is useful for stress, grief, and life changes where motivation and meaning are central. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and everyday stress. When trauma is a main concern, Teresa may draw on trauma-processing techniques to help reduce the hold of painful memories and reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past efforts, and comfort with different methods. That conversation guides whether the focus leans more toward values and action, thought work, emotion regulation, or trauma processing, and the plan is adjusted over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions can also make it easier to continue care while living abroad, since international clients are accepted. The emphasis is on shaping sessions so they fit daily life and therapeutic goals rather than on a single fixed format.
