Get to know Teresa

Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?

I've worked with a wide range of clients with diverse presenting problems during her career. I have no preference for population or diagnosis. I find all populations and issues to be areas that I'm able to support and have been able to help with all age ranges and concerns.


What can clients expect in their first session with you?


During your first session you can expect an open, caring, supportive, empathic and curious interaction.


What do you want to accomplish with an individual in their first session?


A sense of hope and a feeling that you are not alone in your journey.


What do you do for fun/on your time off?


I enjoy helping others, spending time with my family, taking in nature, gardening, reading fiction, painting, obsessing over cats and watching some of my favorite shows over and over again.
