“Teresa is unique from all other therapists in my experience.”

“She is very easy to talk to, and always bring faith into the conversation. Feelings (how I feel when I’m upset) vs. facts (how God sees it)!!”

“She was wonderful, kind, and helpful.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“She is the best therapist ever.”

“Very kind. I’ve always been searching for a faith based therapist and she is the PERFECT addition to my team. I struggle a lot through out the week and deeply look forward to talking with her. She’s not one of those therapists that is just going to stroke your ego the entire time, I truly feel she wants me to get better because she kind of kindly calls me out when I need it. Which trust I do need sometimes. Haha She has changed my life for the better and when BetterHelp didn’t take insurance I wasn’t able to afford seeing her out of pocket and let me tell you my mental health declined. She’s a joy to have.”

“Great listener, introduced me to resources in my neighborhood I had no idea was there. Teresa has served as a blessing on many topics over several sessions. 🙌”

“She is great”

“Teresa has been amazing!”

“We have only had 1 session so far but she is very easy to talk to and seems to understand and have worked with issues we/I am facing. Looking forward to our future sessions”

“She’s very comforting, I always leave our calls feeling better about my outcome for the future.”

“She is a wonderful, caring person, full of wisdom.”

“Wonderful and attentive therapist. Listens and challenges”

“Unlike any other therapist I've encountered. She's the best by far. Really experienced and knowledgeable beyond.”

“Love Teresa!! She's always so helpful. It's never just a "venting " session. She is so good at helping to reframe things and get a bigger perspective. She is strategic, smart, hilarious sometimes, and offers practical suggestions that are realistic and not just ideas that sound good but leave me wondering how to actually implement them. Highly recommend!!”
