About Teresa
Teresa Vossen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 30 years of professional experience. She is licensed in Virginia and New York and works with adults on common life stresses. Teresa focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She draws on straightforward conversation and evidence-informed approaches. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer thinking, and small changes that add up over time. Teresa uses methods from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy among others to guide those discussions.
Many people come to her with family and relationship stress that comes from blended households, caregiver responsibilities, or unresolved family of origin issues. Teresa talks through communication problems, loyalty conflicts, and the day-to-day strain of coordinating schedules and expectations. She also supports people dealing with work stress, finding life purpose, and managing grief.
Her style is direct and collaborative. She helps people set short-term goals and track progress between sessions. Techniques may include checking automatic thoughts, practicing brief mindfulness, and identifying concrete steps to reduce overwhelm.
Teresa asks practical questions at the start to understand what is most urgent. If you are trying to adjust to changes in household roles, parenting challenges, or ongoing anxiety, she offers clear, experience-based guidance to help you move forward.
Approaches used online and what they look like
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can find their own solutions; it helps when someone needs clarity about feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thought patterns and tests them with concrete behavior changes; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attentional practices to reduce reactivity and ground someone during strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will discuss different methods and help decide which fits the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins at times that work, and reduce travel time. They can also let someone join from a quieter location, or choose a phone meeting if they prefer not to be on camera. If you want to know what formats Teresa currently offers, check the session options when you sign up.
