About Teresa

Teresa Jones is a licensed professional counselor who uses practical, evidence-based therapy to help people manage stress and hard feelings. She draws on nine years of experience and keeps sessions straightforward and focused. Teresa speaks English and Spanish and practices in Colorado.

She helps with depression, anxiety, anger, grief, addiction, and trauma. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns, communication problems, forgiveness, loneliness, and post-traumatic stress. Sessions aim to build everyday tools rather than rely on jargon.

Background and approach

Teresa blends several approaches to match what each person needs. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take actions that matter to them.

For trauma-related work she may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when appropriate. For relationship issues she incorporates principles from the Gottman Method to improve communication and reduce conflict. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs support making changes.

In sessions she keeps the tone respectful and direct. The focus is on practical steps, clear goals, and skills you can use between appointments. Teresa aims to create a calm space where clients feel heard and can try new ways of coping.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Teresa frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, even when emotions are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. She may also use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma when it fits a client's needs, which involves structured processing of traumatic memories to reduce their emotional intensity. Choosing the right approach is part of the process; Teresa collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals, preferences, and comfort level. Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work during life transitions. The variety of formats also lets people pick the interaction style they prefer, from face-to-face video to brief check-ins by message.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
