About Theresa
Theresa Kasman is a licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, and struggles with addiction. She focuses on practical steps that help clients build confidence and find clearer direction in their lives. Theresa creates a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters to them and figure out next steps.
She draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to understand how relationships and early patterns shape current behavior. Theresa also uses existential approaches to help people clarify values and life purpose when they feel stuck. These perspectives guide conversations rather than dictate solutions.
Typical concerns she addresses include relationship challenges, low self-esteem, communication problems, and coping with major life changes. She also works with issues related to abandonment, family of origin, and forgiveness. Theresa helps people tackle drug and alcohol addiction and the stresses that come with caregiving.
Sessions emphasize practical goals and small, doable changes. Theresa listens closely and mirrors back what she hears, then helps identify concrete steps clients can try between meetings. Clients set the pace and priorities for their work.
Theresa is based in New York and works in English. She aims to help people translate new insights into everyday behavior so they can move toward clearer direction and more satisfying routines.
How attachment and client-centered work translate to online therapy
Therapy here draws on attachment-based and client-centered perspectives to help people understand relationships and their own responses. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect trust, closeness, and reactions to stress. It can help when communication, abandonment worries, or attachment issues get in the way of daily life.Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person in front of the therapist. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people name their priorities so they can make concrete changes. Existential ideas are often woven in to help people clarify values and purpose when facing big life choices.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which ideas fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. They also make it possible to continue regular work on stress, addiction, relationships, and self-esteem from varied locations without changing the therapeutic focus.
