As a compassionate, empathetic, and solutions-oriented clinician, Teresa brings three decades of clinical experience to her practice. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and holds state licensure (NY LMHC 001358), which reflects her training and qualification to provide professional care. Teresa personalizes treatment by blending therapeutic methods to create an approach tailored to each person’s unique story.

Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, grief, eating disorders, depression, addictions, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, anger management, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Teresa’s goal is to make clients feel supported and understood as they work toward healing and growth.

She looks forward to meeting new clients and learning their stories. As Maya Angelou wrote, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you,” and Teresa seeks to provide the space where those stories can be spoken and addressed.
