As a licensed therapist in Texas, I bring over 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My professional journey is deeply rooted in helping clients navigate difficult experiences, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, addiction, trauma, and parenting challenges.
I have a particular passion for working with military veterans and survivors of sexual assault, offering compassionate and trauma-informed care. My approach centers on understanding each client's unique story and supporting their healing journey with empathy and professional skill.
My therapeutic practice is grounded in creating a safe, supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences, build resilience, and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. I am committed to honoring each client's individual path and providing thoughtful, personalized support.
For those seeking a faith-centered approach, I welcome the opportunity to integrate spiritual perspectives into our therapeutic work, always respecting your personal beliefs and comfort level.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

So very caring and professional. I felt heard and seen and not alone. Warm and wonderful. Helped me see patterns and how to change them.
A fantastically well educated and knowledgeable therapist. I would greatly recommend her services.
Theresa has been so helpful with me moving through my emotions and finally beginning to understand where these feelings and emotions have come from. I'm finally beginning to process things.
