About Teresa
Teresa Bubnis is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor (LPCC) with 25 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Teresa uses clear, respectful language and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel doable for anyone who is nervous about starting.
She adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person's situation. That means practical problem solving and short-term goals when someone needs relief quickly. Teresa also works on longer-term patterns like confidence and motivation when that fits the client's goals.
Her approach draws on methods designed to change unhelpful thinking and build workable skills. She uses strategies that help people notice thoughts and try different behaviors to see what works. Motivational techniques are used to boost willingness to change and follow through on goals.
Teresa also uses focused sessions that look for solutions and small steps forward. This can be helpful for people facing life changes, workplace stress, caregiving burdens, or concerns related to aging. Money and financial issues are included among the practical life problems she addresses.
She treats everyone with sensitivity and respect. The tone in sessions is collaborative and direct, aimed at helping people find clearer choices and manageable next steps. If you are ready to begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.
How Teresa's approaches translate to online therapy
Teresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her work. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce worry or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and build momentum toward personal goals.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Teresa will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try first. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted as progress unfolds.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days by removing commute time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people stay consistent with appointments while managing work, caregiving, or medical schedules. Ask about available session lengths and scheduling choices when you complete the matching questionnaire.
