About Teresa
Teresa Vossen is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience. She is licensed as an LCSW in New York and Virginia and focuses on work and wellbeing as part of her practice. Teresa aims to make beginning therapy feel doable for people who are unsure where to start.
She helps people who are dealing with stress and anxiety, grief and loss, and parenting concerns. She also supports those working on motivation, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Sessions are shaped to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
Teresa uses a conversational, respectful style in sessions. She listens for what matters most and then tailors the discussion and plan to fit each person’s needs. That can mean setting short-term goals or focusing on what people want to change now.
Over her career she has worked with issues tied to relationships and family history, including attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and family of origin problems. She also addresses workplace stress, caregiver strain, and challenges young adults commonly face.
People who choose Teresa can expect straightforward talk and practical steps. She emphasizes sensitivity and compassion while helping clients find clearer direction. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges the courage that requires.
How Teresa’s approaches translate to online sessions
Teresa commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a supportive relationship so clients can speak openly about what matters. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and uses practical steps to change patterns that cause stress or anxiety.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Teresa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will try approaches that fit. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays focused and useful.
