About Theresa
Theresa Kasman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 15 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. She also pays attention to issues like attachment, abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, and questions about life purpose.
Theresa uses an approach that helps people clarify what they want next. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that keep someone stuck and on practical steps toward change. She listens for how past relationships and family dynamics shape present choices, and she helps people notice what matters now.
Theresa leans on client-centered methods to support a person's own goals. That means conversations aim to follow the client's concerns and pace rather than fitting them into a fixed plan. She also integrates attachment-based ideas to look at connection patterns, and existential ideas to address meaning and direction during life changes.
In practice she talks through concrete options and small experiments people can try between sessions. That might include new ways to approach a difficult conversation, adjustments to daily routines, or steps to manage cravings and urges. Her style is straightforward and focused on what helps someone move forward.
People who come because work, relationships, or health have shifted often find it useful to spend time clarifying priorities. Theresa helps with that process and with developing manageable actions that reflect each person’s values and goals.
How her approaches translate to online work
Theresa draws on client-centered work to place the person's goals at the center of sessions. That approach emphasizes listening, reflecting back what matters, and shaping sessions around the client's priorities. It helps when someone is unsure what they want or wants to explore options without pressure.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past and current relationships influence feelings and behavior. This can help when stress, trust, or communication patterns are getting in the way of making changes. Existential perspectives show up when people are wrestling with meaning, direction, or life purpose during transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Theresa will discuss which methods seem most useful based on the client's goals and preferences and will adjust as needs change. That collaborative process helps keep each session aligned with what the person wants to do next.
