About Therese

She holds a Master of Social Work from Michigan State University and maintains her LMSW credential - Licensed Master Social Worker - reflecting advanced graduate training and clinical experience.

Over three decades she has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma and substance use concerns, as well as challenges related to grief, self-esteem, bipolar disorder and addictions. She is trained in Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) and in the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS), equipping her to offer targeted, evidence-informed options alongside broader therapeutic work.

Therese approaches care from a strengths-based, client-centered perspective, respecting that each person is the expert on their own story. She emphasizes collaboration and support, helping clients identify and build on existing resources as they pursue a more fulfilling and balanced life. Taking the first step can be difficult, and she offers steady, experienced guidance for those ready to make change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Therese Muir integrates client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy and building on each person's strengths to guide change. This approach supports people who want a collaborative, respectful space to explore goals and values. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that looks at patterns of thinking and behavior to develop new skills for managing stress, anxiety and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is included for clients who benefit from learning emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Therese works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress unfolds. Clients are involved in selecting techniques and setting priorities throughout treatment.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to consistent care. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, clients can engage in therapy from home or wherever is most convenient. These options make it simpler to schedule appointments, maintain continuity during life transitions, and practice new skills between sessions with support from a licensed professional.
