About Teresa
Teresa Rodriguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of professional experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, family issues, and motivation struggles. Teresa also supports people facing depression, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, career questions, ADHD, and young adult issues.
She keeps sessions straightforward and focused. Teresa uses clear conversation to identify what feels most pressing. She listens in both English and Spanish and works with clients to set achievable goals. Sessions are built around practical steps rather than abstract concepts.
In therapy she draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's perspective and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change. Those methods are combined to match each person's situation and goals.
Teresa tends to work best with people who want direct, practical support. She helps clients break big problems into small steps. For example, that might mean practicing new ways to respond to anger, testing a different thought about failure, or planning routines to manage attention and energy.
Her approach is conversational and action-oriented. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Teresa uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's perspective, helping clients say what matters and feel heard. This approach supports people who need to sort through feelings about identity, relationships, or family stress.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behavior and testing small changes. CBT is practical for anxiety, low mood, and adjusting unhelpful habits. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about change by clarifying personal reasons to try something different.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Teresa will discuss goals and preferences with each client and recommend approaches that fit those needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the available session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, or busy days and can reduce travel time. It also allows short check-ins or longer sessions to match life demands, but check current session options when you start the matching process.
