01About Theresa
Theresa Huggins is a licensed professional counselor with 23 years of experience in Alabama. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and big life changes. Her approach is calm and practical, aimed at making everyday life feel more manageable.
Theresa builds sessions around what each person needs. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and emotionally-focused work to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and paced to match what someone can handle that week. She pays attention to how values, meaning, and relationships affect mood and behavior. That can include looking at how thoughts shape feelings, practicing small changes, and rebuilding confidence after setbacks.
The work is focused on real steps that can fit into daily life. Theresa also listens for how relationship patterns show up in stress and self-worth. When helpful, she brings in emotionally-focused ideas to name interaction cycles and try different responses.
The goal is clearer communication and fewer repeated conflicts. When people start, she helps them set simple goals and tracks progress over time. Theresa aims to make therapy a steady, hopeful process rather than a one-off fix.
Sessions are collaborative, respectful, and paced to each person's comfort.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that move someone toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, helps identify how emotions shape relationships and teaches ways to respond that reduce conflict and increase connection.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s life and adjust the plan as needed based on results and comfort.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people send quick updates or work through thoughts between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and find a rhythm that feels manageable.
