Hi there, I'm Teressa!
I am Dr. Teressa Whitmore, PhD, LPC, providing compassionate, individualized therapy for adolescents, adults, and families. I focus not only on what's wrong, but on what's strong. Together, we'll build coping skills, address emotional and relationship challenges, and create practical strategies for meaningful, lasting change.
My focus
I work with adolescents, adults, and families who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger, family conflict, behavioral concerns, or major life transitions. I support clients in understanding their emotions, recognizing their strengths, improving relationships, developing healthy coping skills, and creating positive change.
My approach
I approach therapy with compassion, respect, and the belief that treatment should be individualized to each person. I use evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. Together, we identify strengths, address challenges, build practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change.
