About Theresa

Theresa Cadd is an Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and CBT therapist. She has been practising since qualifying in 2018 and is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society. Theresa works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family problems, grief, addictions, trauma and anger.

Theresa blends structured cognitive-behavioural techniques with client-centred and psychodynamic ideas. She uses practical tools such as thought records and communication strategies alongside conversations that look at past patterns and attachment. Sessions often include simple exercises to try between meetings and time to reflect on what has been helpful.

Before running a private practice she worked for the mental health charity MIND and later in educational settings supporting students and staff. Those roles helped her gain experience with many different kinds of difficulties and everyday pressures. She continues to take further training and attends workshops to keep practises current.

In session she pays attention to how people relate and to issues such as abandonment, control and impulse problems. Theresa also supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, body image and self-esteem concerns. Her work aims to help people make practical changes and build clearer ways of relating to others.

Theresa offers a mix of structured work and open conversation. New clients complete a short questionnaire to match goals and then arrange an initial appointment. Sessions use a subscription model which can be cancelled at any time.

Talking therapies and approaches available online

Theresa uses cognitive-behavioural techniques and client-centred work in her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical exercises, which can help with anxiety, anger and sleep problems. Client-centred work emphasises listening, reflecting what a person says, and helping them find their own solutions, which suits people wanting a conversational, supportive space.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped before, and together decide which methods to try first. That process is collaborative and can change as needs shift during therapy.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work and family life, or useful for shorter check-ins and follow-up work. If you need practical tools to manage anger, online sessions can include worksheets, behavioural experiments and communication practice you can work on between meetings.
