About Teresa

Teresa Mack is a licensed professional counselor who uses evidence-informed approaches to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life adjustments.

Background and approach

With 11 years of clinical experience and licensure as an LPC and LMHC, she blends practical skills and compassionate guidance to support clients working through depression, panic attacks, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and issues related to guilt or isolation.

Teresa emphasizes client strengths and collaboration, viewing each person as the expert on their own life while offering structured techniques to reduce distress and build coping capacity. She holds licensure in Texas and Florida and frames therapy as a respectful partnership that begins when someone takes that first step.

Teresa recognizes that starting therapy requires courage and offers a steady, validating presence alongside goal-focused strategies. Her approach weaves cognitive-behavioral tools with other therapeutic methods to help clients process difficult experiences and make meaningful changes in day-to-day functioning.

Approach-Based Online Therapy for Practical Change



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by using structured exercises and skills practice; it is often used to address anxiety, depression, panic, and related symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for intense emotions and improving coping during crises. The Gottman Method focuses on improving relationship interactions and communication patterns, supporting those who want clearer conflict resolution and stronger partnership skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to assess goals, preferences, and needs, then tailor a mix of methods that make sense for the presenting concerns. This collaborative exploration helps ensure therapy fits the person and their situation rather than applying a single method uniformly.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to access care from home or while balancing work and family commitments. These formats make it easier to schedule consistent sessions and to use brief check-ins or messaging for between-session support when appropriate.
