About Teresa

Teresa Vossen is a licensed clinical social worker with three decades of experience. She is licensed as an LCSW in New York and Virginia and has spent many years helping people handle stress, grief, and anxiety. Teresa works with adults who want more confidence, clearer priorities, or help getting unstuck.

Her style is respectful and straightforward. She listens first, then tailors conversations and plans to each person's situation. Sessions aim to be practical so people leave with steps they can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Teresa often helps with parenting challenges and the strain caregivers feel. She also addresses relationship patterns that come from family of origin, blended family issues, and communication problems. She supports people navigating life purpose changes, workplace difficulties, and the transition into young adulthood.

She uses several evidence-informed approaches to shape sessions, including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. Those approaches are applied in plain language and adjusted to the pace a person prefers. Teresa encourages people who feel nervous about starting therapy.

She recognizes that taking the first step takes courage and aims to make scheduling and early sessions as manageable as possible. If someone wants a straightforward collaborator to talk through next steps, she frames the work around clear goals and usable strategies.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and reflecting it back so they feel heard; it helps when someone needs clearer direction or support making decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety and stress. Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment through simple breathing and awareness exercises to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients are invited to share what feels helpful and what does not so sessions stay relevant and workable.

Online formats here include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and deeper work, phone can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth, chat and messaging allow brief check-ins or continued reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or school schedules while keeping the work focused on practical change.
