She also works with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, and career or life-change challenges.

How different approaches can work in online counselling
Theresa draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding, helping people feel heard so they can find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers structured ways to spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes that can reduce anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviours.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working together. That choice is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, check the specific session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick update is helpful. They can also allow people to use techniques such as guided mindfulness exercises and homework tasks between sessions to help progress day to day.
