How Teresa's approaches adapt to online work

Teresa uses a person-centred approach that keeps the focus on each person's experience. This means sessions begin with listening carefully, and the pace and topics follow what matters most to the person. It helps with relationship worries, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

She also brings mindfulness teaching into her work. Mindfulness here involves simple attention and breathing exercises that help with anxiety, stress and emotional overwhelm. These practices are taught gently and can be repeated between sessions to build resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Teresa will work collaboratively to identify which tools and practices suit a person's goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise reflective conversation, practical steps, or mindfulness exercises at any point.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm the available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people try mindfulness exercises from wherever they are. Registered or accredited professionals often find these practical benefits help therapy slot into everyday life more easily.
