Dear Reader, my name is Theresa and I live in Swansea which is in South Wales, UK. I am qualified as an Integrative Counsellor, Accredited MBACP and Accredited member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society NCPS. I use my knowledge and skills in a way that is most helpful to you by adapting my approach to suit your individual needs and preferences. I understand the importance that we accept our individuality and uniqueness, our personal view of ourselves and the world once identified, is how we are able to make changes that work best for ourselves.
I have been working as a counsellor since qualifying in 2018. My counselling student hours was completed at a Mental Health Charity named MIND and whilst there I gained an immense amount of invaluable learning, understanding and knowledge. Working with many clients that came into the charity with a diverse range of issues, requesting my help to support and work with them in order to aid their path forwards in self development, understanding acceptance and positive changes.
My working methods strongly stems from my compassion, kindness, patience and understanding that there are times in our lives when we are struggling, having someone to talk to; who listens without judgement; hears without interrupting and offers a safe and secure place for you to feel able to talk though problems is of a great importance in building a strong therapeutic relationship. Based on my initial person centered approach, I will enable your self belief, trust, confidence and personal growth expand into positive changes.
I use a variety of evidenced-based tools and techniques that will support you in understanding the issues impacting your life today, and more importantly help you get to live your life the way you want and deserve.
I work in collaboration with you – your goals are my goals - we will be on this journey together.
I very much look forward to working with you and thank you for taking the time to read about me and what I am able to offer as your therapist.

Theresa has been amazing throughout the very difficult process I am undergoing. She has remained empathetic but also challenged me on occasion to see my unhelpful reactions to situations that keep me in an unhealthy loop of behaviour. Theresa is able to provide a 3rd perspective and encourage me to do the same when I can get stuck in my own, absolutely brilliant therapist!

I've been working with Theresa for about 7 months now and it has been the best investment I made in my health. She is very personable, compassionate and asks really thought provoking questions in a gentle way.

Theresa is very empathetic and really understands what is going on inside me. She takes time to reflect and really listens and tries to profoundly understand what is going on! I can 100% recommend her!
Written on Mar 13, 2023 after therapy with Theresa for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, and self esteem
Theresa is like my best friend and kind of a mother figure. After each session I discover something new about myself from a different perspective. She listens in a way that makes me feel accepted, heard and cared for. I like when she honestly and emphatically tells me about my negative patterns or false stories I tell myself. Having Theresa by my side during my toughest and loneliest times was a blessing . Thank you for everything Theresa.
Written on Mar 09, 2023 after therapy with Theresa for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and coaching
Theresa is a wonderful therapist to work with, she understands my main concerns and allows me to guide the discussions we have each week. She’s able to provide me with tools to manage my stress, processing, and experiences, while also remaining extremely supportive and responsive. Theresa also encourages me to use BetterHelp’s messaging feature between sessions, and always has a thoughtful response. I’m very lucky to have found Theresa through BetterHelp!
Written on Feb 01, 2023 after therapy with Theresa for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue
Theresa has been utterly professional and yet warm and caring. I have been helped enormously by sessions with Theresa and can strongly recommend her as a therapist.
Written on Dec 15, 2022 after therapy with Theresa for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, grief, and parenting issues
Theresa has been an absolute pleasure to work with- so warm and friendly and I would happily recommend her.
This is my first experience with therapy and Theresa has worked with me in a way that I found comfortable and helpful. Although difficult at times, therapy has overall been an extremely positive experience and Theresa has given me so many tools to take forward with me to use when dealing with the issues we discussed.
I will miss our weekly chats and would happily work with Theresa again should I decide to return to therapy in the future .
Written on Dec 07, 2022 after therapy with Theresa for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and grief
Theresa has been an invaluable addition to my mental health betterment journey.
I've have been met with nothing but positive experiences, professionalism and kindness throughout our sessions and through some very dark moments.
Working with a therapist can be tasking when suffering deeply with depression and other ailments, not only because it takes so much effort to simply attend a session but to be present is truly difficult. That's why I believe that Theresa has been the right choice of therapist for me from Betterhelp, I haven't felt comfortable with opening up privately to someone before she has been ever supportive and continues to check in with me throughout the break periods between sessions and that alone gave me comfort that she not only has my interests in mind but she also understands that my lacking ability to continually check in on journal entries or to care for myself enough to reach out.
I truly believe I would be lost without Betterhelp and Theresa especially right now when times are an incredible struggle.
Thanks Theresa, if YOU are reading this

I’m only a few sessions in with Theresa but already I would recommend her to anyone. She is so kind and compassionate and always makes me feel heard - I leave every session feeling that a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
She responds very quickly to messages with comforting words and advice, and has introduced me to several effective methods for working on my anxiety.
I’m really happy with my experience so far.

I am so glad I was matched with Theresa, she has been exactly what I needed.
From the outset Theresa made me feel safe, heard and supported. I am able to truly release with her and her advice, redirection and reframing are always spot on. The best therapist I’ve ever had.

Theresa is one of the first therapists that I ever spoke to, she made me feel safe and comfortable.
I would 100% recommend her.

I've only had a few sessions but already I can see a difference. Theresa has helped me understand some of the issues that I'm going through and how to process these events in a healthy way. She's been wonderful in making sure I am as comfortable as possible, especially since it's my first time doing therapy. I cannot recommend her enough as a therapist to everyone that needs a helping hand.

Theresa is one of the warmest people I’ve met so that makes her so easy to talk to.
She responds very quickly to my messages and is always so understanding and her words are so kind.
Theresa has helped me put strategies in place that I am working on.
I have already recommended a friend who is now using Better Health and that’s because I have had such caring experience.
Thank you.

Prior signing up I was really doubtful whether the app can provide me with a counsellor who is capable to manage my personality disorder as I had a lot of previous disappointments where I felt there is no help.
I am extremely grateful to have her, she is amazing. Within 10 minutes of our first conversation I felt like she understands me and gave me a straight spot on feedback regarding my goals which made me feel like she knows me.
I've had only 2 sessions so far but I feel like my life turned round and I made significant changes what I was so scared to do before. I feel secure and safe with her and I feel like she has a lot of knowledge, understanding and experience to support me through my mental health journey.
If I need her she is always available and fulfilled my wishes of having homework every week and including my previously learnt DBT skills.
I could go on and on, she is amazing and I'm lucky to have her. One of my best decisions ever.
