About Teresa
Teresa Fowler is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with young adults and others who are coping with anxiety, stress, depression, parenting questions, relationship strain, grief, trauma, ADHD, and related concerns.
Teresa listens and helps people break problems into manageable steps. She uses practical strategies drawn from approaches such as cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, and skills from dialectical behavior work. Conversations focus on what is getting in the way day to day and on small changes that make life easier to handle.
Her background includes work with people facing illness, chronic pain, disability-related barriers, hearing loss, caregiver stress, and the vocational pressures that come with early adulthood. Teresa also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, blended family challenges, substance problems, and intimacy-related concerns.
Sessions are collaborative and direct. Teresa offers straightforward feedback, goal-focused techniques, and chances to practice new ways of coping between meetings. She draws on client-centered principles to keep the work grounded in each person's values and strengths.
Teresa works in English and American Sign Language. She does not accept international clients. To get started she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's booking tools.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practice small actions that align with those values even when feelings are hard. It is useful for persistent anxiety, low motivation, and when choices feel blocked. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that worsen anxiety or depression and practicing alternative responses. It suits work on stress, mood, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication in relationships, which can help with intense anger or relationship strain.Choosing an approach is part of the work. Teresa will discuss different methods and collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs and goals. That choice may shift as therapy progresses and as practical goals emerge.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, or caregiving by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows practicing skills between meetings in the settings where challenges happen. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach coping exercises, review progress, and set concrete tasks to try between appointments.
