About Theresa

Theresa Thomason is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflict, parenting strains, trauma and abuse, and anger. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at people who want clearer ways to manage strong emotions and day-to-day pressures.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused work, Mindfulness practices, and Rational-Emotive techniques. In sessions she helps people identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. She then practices small, manageable changes that reduce reactivity and increase options for dealing with tense moments.

Theresa emphasizes collaboration. She treats each person as the expert on their life and adapts sessions based on what the client says is most useful. This can mean brief, goal-focused work or slower skill-building depending on what the client needs.

Practical tools are a regular part of meetings. That might include thought records, brief mindfulness exercises, or step-by-step plans for handling conflicts at home or work. Theresa also addresses related issues people bring up, such as attachment struggles, parenthood questions, feelings of shame or guilt, and substance concerns.

She conducts sessions in English and works from a values-first, problem-solving stance. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to set goals and plan next steps.

How sessions work

Therapeutic techniques and how they work online

Theresa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that feed anger and anxiety. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives clear steps to shift each part.

She also uses Solution Focused work to set short-term goals and practice small changes that produce quick relief. Mindfulness practice is included to teach simple attention and breathing skills that reduce reactivity in the moment.

Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps the client make steady progress. Clients help guide which tools are kept or dropped as therapy moves forward.

The original profile does not specify the exact session formats offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use audio-only or video depending on what works best for them and their bandwidth. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday life without changing the core work of addressing anger and related concerns.
