About Teresa

Teresa Rodriguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family tensions, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation struggles. Teresa works in both English and Spanish and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. Teresa listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and then helps people try different ways of responding. Sessions include looking at thoughts and behaviors, building skills to manage strong feelings, and setting small, achievable goals.

Teresa often combines client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and test new habits. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify what they want and find the energy to make changes. These methods are used to address issues like relationships, parenting pressures, career stress, grief, and trauma-related concerns.

When anger is part of the picture, Teresa focuses on concrete strategies: noticing early signs, developing coping responses, and practicing communication that reduces escalation. She helps people work through resentment, jealousy, infidelity aftermath, and forgiveness at a pace that feels manageable.

Her work includes attention to multicultural issues and veteran and armed forces concerns. People who want to start usually complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule an initial session to set goals and plan next steps.

How Teresa’s approaches translate to online sessions

Teresa draws on client-centered work to focus sessions on what matters most to each person. This approach emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can clarify their priorities and feel understood. It can help when anger comes from relationship strains or parenting pressures.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT offers concrete exercises for managing anxious thinking, building healthier responses to triggers, and reducing repeated patterns of escalation. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and strengthen commitment to new habits.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Teresa will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
