01About Tressa
Tressa Henson is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Mindfulness practices are offered to help people stay present and reduce reactivity. Motivational Interviewing can help when someone feels stuck and wants clearer direction.
With 17 years of experience, Tressa combines counseling and coaching skills to match what each person needs. She emphasizes respect, warmth, and an encouraging tone in sessions. That approach is meant to make it easier to talk about difficult topics and try new strategies.
Clients in Michigan will find her grounded, practical focus helpful for everyday problems. Tressa describes her work as collaborative - she listens, offers options, and helps people choose what fits their life. Progress often comes from small, consistent changes rather than rapid fixes.
People meet with her by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. English is offered as the session language and she works within a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

04Online support
Evidence-based approaches for online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and increase calm in stressful moments. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change by clarifying values and building internal motivation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to a person’s goals and try different tools to see what fits best. Sessions often blend methods so the plan matches the client’s needs and preferences rather than following a fixed script.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful for a fuller conversation. Phone can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins and flexible communication between longer appointments, which can help maintain momentum during a busy week.
