About Theresa

Theresa Farello is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with five years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, and life transitions. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues related to intimacy and self-esteem.

Theresa draws on practical, person-focused approaches in sessions. She uses client-centered work to listen and reflect what matters most to the client. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behavior patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when stronger feelings and attachment concerns are central.

Before practicing as an LPCC, Theresa's roles included school counselor, director of social services, and part-time adjunct professor. Those experiences inform her approach to practical problem solving, and to supporting people in different life stages. She often helps clients who are navigating breakups, parenting challenges, adoption and foster care issues, and first responder stress.

In sessions she aims to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck, practice small changes, and build better ways to manage intense emotions like anger. She works with concerns such as addictions, OCD-related behaviors, self-harm history, sexual assault and abuse recovery, and challenges tied to sensory impairments.

Theresa offers therapy in English and bases her practice in Ohio. She uses a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used and a first session can be scheduled through the online options button.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Theresa uses client-centered therapy to listen closely and follow what the client brings. That approach helps when someone needs to talk through anger triggers, daily stress, or relationship friction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting thought patterns and testing small behavior changes; it is practical for anger management, workplace stress, and mood work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at strong feelings and attachment patterns and can help when anger is tied to deeper relationship pain or loss.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Theresa collaborates with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and preferences. She will adjust the plan as a client learns what helps and what does not, so therapy stays focused on usable skills and clearer emotional understanding.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered. Please confirm available session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency while they practice managing anger, trying new responses, and building calmer routines.
