Therapeutic approaches and online care with Teresa Freeman

Teresa draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and develop practical skills for accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action. ACT is often used for anxiety, stress, and persistent patterns of avoidance. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationships shape current connection styles and emotional responses - it can be helpful for abandonment issues, relationship struggles, and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Teresa works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model. Her role as a licensed professional is to guide that collaboration and offer options that align with client priorities.

Online therapy offers flexibility to receive care by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of support when life circumstances change, while still allowing therapists to use structured tools and interventions adapted for remote work.
