About Teresa

Teresa Stebner is an LPMHC - Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor practicing in Delaware with 13 years of experience. She works with young adults and others on concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and career and life transitions.

Teresa blends approaches to fit each person's needs. She pays attention to how thoughts influence actions and how past and present experiences interact. Family systems, trauma, grief, and current relationships are often discussed together to understand patterns that repeat.

Her style focuses on building on a person's existing strengths. She helps people learn to advocate for themselves and make choices that match their values. Sessions can include talking through difficult memories, practicing new behaviors, and examining how thoughts affect feelings and actions.

Teresa draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused perspectives, acceptance-based practices, and emotionally-focused techniques. These approaches are used to address things like compulsive behaviors, impulsivity, body image, caregiver stress, and struggles with purpose and identity.

She also supports people facing issues related to ADHD, autism spectrum traits, intimacy, parenting stress, and substance use. Her aim is practical: help someone manage symptoms, improve relationships, and make clearer decisions about next steps.

To begin, people choose an online therapy option, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It is often used when someone feels stuck or unsure about life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers practical tools to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and impulsive behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current bonds and closeness, useful for intimacy issues and relationship distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will discuss options with each person and decide together what to try first. That means plans can change as needs and goals become clearer, and techniques are chosen to fit the client’s preferences and problems.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel for appointments. These practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent while balancing school, work, and other responsibilities.
