How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely and reflects back what she hears to help people make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach can help with themes like relationship problems, low self-esteem and major life changes.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to notice thoughts and bodily signals. It can reduce reactivity to stress and help with anxiety, overwhelm and sleep difficulties by building steadier awareness in everyday moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will discuss methods and adapt them together with each person, based on goals, needs and preferences. The collaboration helps decide whether more reflective listening, mindfulness exercises, or a combination fits best.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, avoid travel time and use quieter surroundings for longer conversations. Single-session check-ins or shorter meetings can be arranged to suit a break at work or a quick review, depending on what is agreed when scheduling.
