Teresa is a great listener, who will give advice when needed. It’s all about her making sure the client’s need is her first priority. She give worksheets to complete that are related to subject matter.

Sessions with Teresa feel to me like a chat with the wisest friend I have. She’s very relatable, and keeps me on my toes with gems of thought that lead me even deeper into my self journey. I’m very appreciative for her!

My therapist Teresa makes me feel safe and welcomed here, and I can express my feelings without hiding anything. I have learned a lot one thing being that my feelings are valid and matter. Also not to be afraid to tell people how I feel in a way that won’t make them feel attacked. She has helped me build and learn on working on myself and things I want to be better at for myself. Working with her makes me feel like she really cares and lends a listening ear and offers great advice.

Teresa Utley has been my first therapist and made this an enjoyable experienced. I feel like I'm listen too. She gets me think of other people perspectives. My family has even noticed a positive change to my behavior as I learn to have a dialogue with them, I don't feel like I'm being patronize to and just I'm in awe of this experience
