01About Teresa
Teresa Villbrandt is a licensed professional counselor who brings 17 years of experience to her work. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and major life changes. Teresa aims to guide clients toward a more balanced life and healthier relationships.
She uses practical, down-to-earth methods in sessions. Conversations cover what feels hard now and small steps that can change daily life. Teresa draws on her own experiences to relate to struggles and to offer realistic strategies for self-care and coping.
Background and approach
Her background includes long-term work with people facing grief, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy concerns, and identity issues including LGBT-related stress. She also supports people coping with mood challenges such as depression and bipolar mood shifts, attention differences, eating concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue. Teresa works with several trauma-focused approaches.
She incorporates techniques to help process difficult memories and reduce their hold on day-to-day functioning. Mindfulness and narrative methods are woven into sessions to help people notice patterns and make different choices. Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than abstract talk.
Teresa talks through what’s getting in the way, experiments with new ways of responding, and checks in on what’s working. The goal is clearer coping skills, steadier mood, and improved relationship interactions over time.

04Online support
How trauma-focused and narrative methods work online
Teresa uses EMDR and Mindfulness Therapy to address the impact of traumatic events and ongoing anxiety. EMDR involves guided attention and bilateral stimulation to help reduce the intensity of distressing memories and the feelings tied to them. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend approaches that fit. That choice is collaborative and may change as progress is made or new needs emerge.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues when needed. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simple to keep momentum between sessions or to share short updates that don’t require a full meeting. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity of care across locations.
