About Theresa
Theresa Bishop is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with ten years of experience.

Theresa trained in professional counseling at Carlow University and has practical experience helping people affected by loss, addiction, and mood conditions. Her work often includes direct skills practice and clear steps people can use between sessions. She draws on clinical approaches that focus on values, behavior change, and problem-solving.
In sessions she uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused methods when they fit a person’s situation. Theresa talks through concrete strategies for stress, sleep, and managing angry reactions at home or work.
Theresa describes the therapeutic relationship as shaped by life experience rather than only training. She aims to listen closely and stay objective while working collaboratively on goals. Her process often includes discussion, practical exercises, and steps for trying new behaviors between appointments.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Theresa commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action, which can help when anger or avoidance gets in the way of what matters. CBT breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and gives concrete tools for changing how you react to stress and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will talk with each person about goals and preferences and help choose which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or new issues arise.
Session format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Video can support skill practice and visual cues, while other formats may involve less setup and still allow focused conversation and homework planning. Licensed professionals, including therapists using these approaches, aim to make sessions practical and relevant to everyday life.
