About Teresa

Teresa Worthy is a Licensed Practical Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of professional experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She brings a seasoned, compassionate approach to work with clients facing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, addiction, parenting concerns, the effects of trauma, and the practical and emotional aspects of ADHD. Her practice includes focused care for those impacted by domestic violence and for individuals navigating grief, career transitions, and intimacy-related struggles.

Known for an engaging and interactive counseling style, Teresa emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and empathy in every session. She avoids stigmatizing labels and instead helps clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. Her method is integrative - she blends cognitive-behavioral techniques, humanistic principles, psychodynamic insights, and rational-emotive ideas into a tailored plan that aligns with each person’s story and goals.

Teresa aims to empower clients to take courageous steps toward change. She works collaboratively to set realistic goals, develop practical strategies, and foster resilience so people can move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. Teresa welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds and is experienced in addressing complex, intersectional concerns with thoughtfulness and care.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Teresa draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking purposeful action toward meaningful goals. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to build insight, self-acceptance, and personal growth; this approach is particularly helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and adjustment after trauma. Additionally, Teresa integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete coping skills for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Teresa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine approaches to best support individual circumstances.

Online therapy with Teresa offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter interactions are available via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent care around work, family, or time zone constraints, while maintaining continuity of treatment and steady progress toward personal goals.
