Licensed Social Worker - Anger and Mood Concerns

  • Stress and anxiety
  • Anger management
  • Parenting strain

About Teresa

Teresa Gonzalez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, low motivation, low self-esteem, and depression, and also supports people managing anger and life transitions.

Teresa keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens to what is most pressing and helps people identify clear steps to reduce tension and improve daily functioning. Conversations focus on what feels manageable now and what small changes could make a real difference at home or work.

Her background includes a range of mood and behavior concerns, including ADHD and bipolar mood disorders, grief, and issues that show up in the workplace. Teresa also addresses communication problems, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and the strain that parenting or pregnancy can bring.

Teresa offers sessions in English and Spanish. She encourages people who are frustrated with recurring anger or mounting resentment to bring specific examples so they can practice different responses in session. The work is practical rather than theoretical, with attention to everyday triggers and patterns.

People who choose her often want straightforward tools to manage strong feelings and clearer ways to express needs. To begin, prospective clients use the site matching questionnaire to schedule a first appointment and discuss next steps.

How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions

Teresa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavior changes. One common approach is skills training that teaches concrete ways to notice triggers, pause, and respond differently; this helps with anger, workplace frustration, and tense conversations. Another approach emphasizes mood-focused strategies to track symptoms and build routines that stabilize energy and reduce overwhelm, which can help with depression and bipolar mood management.

Finding the right method is collaborative. Teresa will review your goals, try practical techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. Sessions often include short exercises to practice between meetings so progress can be measured and discussed openly.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since none are listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time so more of the day is available for work or family. Therapists can also adapt exercises for audio-only or video visits depending on what best supports your needs.
