Teresa Freeman, LCSW

Teresa Freeman is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, anger, and depression. She creates a calm space where clients can talk about hard feelings without fear of judgment. Teresa emphasizes practical steps and steady pacing so people can take manageable action between sessions.

In sessions she listens closely and matches her approach to each person's needs. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thinking and from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build emotional regulation and coping skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify their values and take value-driven steps, while client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in the client's priorities.

Teresa has worked across common life stressors such as blended family challenges, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and the fallout from divorce or separation. She also supports people facing addictions, domestic violence histories, and difficulties with attachment and abandonment.

Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She helps clients set small goals, practice skills in daily life, and track progress over time. Teresa notes that starting therapy takes courage and she aims to make that first step feel respected and doable.

Evening appointments are currently the times she offers. Prospective clients should confirm scheduling and session options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online

Teresa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that suit focused online work. ACT helps people name what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, which can be practiced between sessions. CBT looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions, and it provides clear exercises to try at home that a therapist can review remotely.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. Decisions about approach are collaborative and may shift as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and less travel time, which can make it simpler to fit sessions into an evening routine. Because formats were not specified in the biography, confirm available session options before booking so you know what to expect. Many people find remote sessions helpful for regular check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing planning without needing to rearrange large parts of their day.
