About Theresa

Theresa Wolford is a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, grief, and major life changes. She has 15 years of experience and often supports clients facing career concerns, mood instability, fertility and pregnancy-related worries, and the emotional impact of separation or loss. Theresa aims to make therapy feel practical and approachable for a worried parent or someone juggling many responsibilities.

Theresa uses a blend of approaches chosen to fit each person. Sessions focus on clear goals, problem-solving skills, and learning ways to notice and change unhelpful thinking. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to the client and on cognitive behavioral techniques to address thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.

Her background includes a BS in Psychology from Wayne State College and an MS in Counseling from Creighton University. She holds the LMHP credential and brings long experience helping people navigate career decisions, family-of-origin issues, and feelings of isolation or guilt.

Theresa emphasizes simple, direct tools clients can use between sessions. She aims to create a warm space where people can talk honestly about fear, shame, and uncertainty. Progress is tracked in concrete ways so clients can see change over time.

People choose Theresa when they want focused, goal-oriented help that still honors personal values and life context. She welcomes conversations about coping strategies for pregnancy and childbirth concerns alongside broader emotional and relationship work.

Approach-driven online support that fits your life

Theresa combines client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide sessions online. Client-centered therapy means the conversation starts with what matters most to the person and follows their pace. This helps when emotional needs or pregnancy worries need gentle exploration. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress related to life transitions.

Deciding on an approach is collaborative. Theresa will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together you will check what helps and adjust the plan as needed so the work matches your life and values.

Please confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are supported. Online work can make scheduling easier, letting people fit sessions into busy days or during breaks. It can also reduce travel time and help maintain continuity of care when life gets hectic. Theresa aims to make therapy practical and usable, so techniques learned in sessions apply to everyday moments.
