About Theresa
Theresa Grodi-Kennon is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical help for everyday struggles. She frames sessions around clear goals and simple steps so clients can feel steadier and more able to cope. She draws on two decades of experience in mental health work, including many years in psychiatric hospital settings and more recent outpatient practice.
That background gives her experience with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and mood disorders such as bipolar.
Background and approach
She also helps with parenting stress, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and life changes. Theresa uses straightforward problem solving, active listening, and tools clients can use between sessions. She encourages small changes that add up over time.
Sessions often focus on identifying patterns, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and trying new habits that ease daily strain. Grief and loss are areas she frequently supports. She offers compassion and practical steps to manage survivor feelings and begin rebuilding.
Theresa aims to help people label emotions, make sense of painful experiences, and find ways to move forward. People meet her for help with relationship and communication problems, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and midlife concerns. She also works with issues like body image, eating-related concerns, social anxiety, and career stress.
Theresa provides a calm, nonjudgmental space and partners with clients to set realistic goals.

Online support
Using evidence-based approaches in online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and take small steps toward what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and making values-based choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems stuck and is often used for depression, anxiety, and sleep issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and reflects so the client can find their own answers.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they decide what to try first and adjust the plan as progress happens.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and learning new skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in is needed. Chat and messaging let people share brief updates or work through thoughts between live sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy, keep consistency, and use practices in the context of daily life.
