Here to help.

As a Rapid Transformational Therapist , I'm passionate about helping individuals rewire their brains to project positive images and words. I believe in the power of beliefs—first you make your beliefs, and then your beliefs make you. My mission is to empower others to break free from limiting beliefs and unlock their true potential. I chose to become an RTT therapist because I find the approach both creative and innovative, and I'm excited to work with clients to help them improve their lives. I can help you identify and overcome negative thought patterns that may be holding you back. By becoming more attuned to your beliefs, you can create a brighter, more positive future for yourself. Let's work together to unleash the best version of you!

I have been a clinical psychologist for over 20 years and have experience with a myriad of circumstances, diagnoses, and difficulties people face in life. I believe in establishing a safe environment in which one can freely express what they feel, think, believe, question, and share anything without worrying about judgment. Many circumstances in life have clouded one's ability to fulfill one's true potential and live life as one's best self. Together, we will gain insight into the genesis of what troubles you and work to strengthen skills and strategies to cope effectively and establish personal growth. I have a great deal of experience with many life, relationship, family, and social challenges. I use an eclectic approach with a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) background to treat adolescents and adults. I specialize in depression, anxiety, and eating issues and their related challenges. I am interactive, direct, and fully engaging in sessions. Whether your life seems currently unmanageable and/or you feel you haven't addressed past unprocessed difficulties, I can help you. To have someone by your side, helping you manage the challenges, encouraging you to face the obstacles, and supporting you every step of the way is essential to the therapeutic process and progress. I am truly here to help!

I believe in the power of therapy to heal and to bring a shift in ones perceptions. My effort is to engage the other in a cooperative process and in doing so to open all kinds of other possibilities in one's life. I have worked as a therapist for quite a few years and feel that the initial coming to the office is a difficult first step, but one that in the end will enable you to have a better quality of life.

Teresa has worked for years helping Adult Children, parents & siblings that are or have lived with someone's alcohol and drug abuse & feels like the addiction has made their lives unmanageable.It is important to talk honestly with family members about what is happening in the family and to help them express their concerns and feelings.Families with alcohol and drug problems usually have high levels of stress and confusion.These family members need to have their experiences validated and learn that they did not cause it they cannot control the addiction, and they cannot cure the addiction. She is well-versed and comfortable in individual, group and family counseling sessions and utilizes creative approaches to encouraging sharing and support. Teresa's experience covers a broad range of care including family of all ages, teenagers, elementary-age children and children on the Autism spectrum disorders.Teresa works from a systemic approach bringing the entire family into sessions. Through the integration of cognitive, behavioral and spiritual awareness, clients learn that they hold the answers to create harmony in their lives. In recognizing and meeting her clients need for spirituality, Teresa employs an eclectic approach, ensuring that treatment is tailored to individual needs, using experimental methods with cognitive behavioral techniques to facilitate an individual's and family's insight and personal growth. She believes in her client's ability to create balance and sees them healed.

My approach is the product of over a decade of experience working collaboratively with clients in an environment of non-judgement. I believe in taking an introspective and collaborative approach when working with adults and adolescents. I believe this kind of treatment approach allows the patients to recognize their own ability to heal based on their own experiences and judgement. Every day we bear the burden of deep emotional wounds and pain that can often cause us to become disillusioned with ourselves, others and the world at large. Avoiding these struggles is a natural way of coping for most of us. But despite the temporary relief it brings, coping in this way often maintains unhealthy and irrational beliefs, negative feelings, and unproductive, or even destructive, behaviors. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the healing factor and work to be authentic, transparent as well as professional. By providing a safe, supportive and compassionate environment, my clients can find the strength to explore and process their issues without judgement, being stigmatized or pathologized. Encouraging and empowering clients to turn towards and explore these areas of difficulty in their lives can lead to lasting change and new ways to relate to themselves, others and the world.

We all have gifts from God, and I believe helping people to heal is one of my gifts. We are all on a journey of self discovery. All aspects of our life including the work that we do, the people that come into our lives, and the things that happen to us all provide an opportunity for growth and deepening our connection with ourselves and others. I have known I wanted to be a therapist since I was 13, because it was the first time when I saw a therapist that someone actually tuned into my feelings. Through this experience, I felt seen and truly began to see myself. The most valuable subject we can learn about to be successful in life is ourselves! How are we supposed to navigate through our lives without knowing ourselves? How can we be centered if we do not understand some underlying principles about psychology, such as how we interpret our environment, defense mechanisms we employ to protect ourselves from pain, and the mind-body-spirit connection? How can we navigate the many ups and downs of life without this knowledge? We cannot; we will be lost! That is why there is so much suffering in our world, because individually, as families, and as a society we are trying to navigate our lives without truly understanding and healing ourselves. Through understanding and healing, it helps to stop years of negative multi-generational patterns in families and helps to promote a deeper, happier more peaceful connection within and with others, which in turn, makes our world a better place.

People who come to my practice often feel let down by others, misunderstood, led to believe there is something wrong with them. In our work, I tend to be interested in how the past interacts with the present, helping you gain insight, self-acceptance, and self-awareness in a collaborative atmosphere. I will be your partner in the process, identifying problematic patterns of thought and behavior, understanding what's inhibiting you in relationships, and facilitating difficult emotions.

You're standing at the threshold of change, where fear and uncertainty cloud your path. In this pivotal moment, my role is to illuminate the way forward, transforming apprehension into a journey of self-discovery and growth. Drawing from my own experiences of navigating life's challenges, I recognize the courage it takes to make yourself a priority. Together, we will explore not just what you desire from life, but what you fundamentally need, rediscover your innermost self, and realize your true potential.
