About Thérèse
Thérèse Fletcher is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois with 13 years of experience. She works with adults on problems such as anxiety, depression, anger, grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. Her practice focuses on helping people handle emotional stress and practical life difficulties so they can move forward.
Fletcher spent much of her career supporting vulnerable communities in urban settings. She has worked in medical and social services and has supervised and trained other social workers. That background informs a practical approach to common life problems and stressful transitions.
She describes therapy as a collaborative effort. Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete methods. That can mean short-term solution work or longer-term emotional processing depending on the person's needs.
Fletcher uses a strength-based stance that aims to build confidence and increase personal agency. She helps people develop tools that address current issues and reduce their impact on relationships, work, or daily routines.
In session she offers straightforward support without judgment. She also provides accountability as clients try new strategies and stick to goals. People considering help are encouraged to start with a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first meeting to see if the approach fits.
How she uses evidence-based approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can identify goals and values. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings about relationships, grief, or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behavior interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger to build new coping responses.
Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice moment-to-moment experience and reduce reactivity. It can aid with stress, sleep problems, and managing strong emotions like frustration or resentment.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made.
Confirm what session formats she currently offers before scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find remote sessions help them stay consistent while trying new skills in their everyday life.
